🔧Library Automation
The library has been automated using e-Granthalaya 3.0, an integrated library automation software developed by the National Informatics Centre, under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India. This user-friendly software has been in use since the academic year 2017-18. Additionally, we have installed Koha 23.05, a robust and user-friendly library management system. We plan a full transition to Koha following the NAAC visit.An in-house developed footfall tracking system monitors user visits, while the Institutional Repository (IR), created using D’Space, showcases the institution’s research publications.

The library also organizes national and institutional-level workshops, supporting professional development and continuous learning for students and staff.

Looking ahead, the library aims to expand its physical and digital collections, enhance user engagement through advanced services, and upgrade its infrastructure.
