Equipped with digital infrastructure, the e-library offers high-speed internet and access to premier learning platforms such as NDLI, DELNET, British Library, NPTEL, SWAYAM, and Shodhganga. These resources provide access to thousands of e-books, e-journals, periodicals, reference materials, and academic databases covering a wide range of disciplines. DELNET, in particular, enables inter-library loan services, broadening the scope of materials available to users and fostering academic collaboration across institutions. NDLI further empowers users to access digital content curated by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, ensuring availability of quality educational material at all levels.

A dedicated Digital Library section with PCs supports virtual learning, while a separate competitive exam section encourages focused preparation. Regular orientation sessions, faculty support, and a comfortable study environment further promote active engagement. The use of MS Teams as a Learning Management System (LMS) further strengthens the digital framework of the library, enabling faculty to share reading materials, assignments, and academic content seamlessly with students

Through its comprehensive collection and digital access, the library plays a pivotal role in supporting the institution’s commitment to quality education and holistic student development. The students are encouraged by the faculty to read reference books and utilize e-resources available in library to augment their subject knowledge.
