The College maintains a well-stocked library. The library is open to bonafide students of all the classes. All important textbooks are kept in the Reserve Section to enable the students to write their tutorials. There is a well-equipped Reading Room, which subscribes to a large number of dailies, weeklies, periodicals and journals on a variety of subjects.

Nowdays a library has come to be regarded as an integral part of the academic setup of a college, the major aim of which is to acquire , collect and organise books and other allied reading materials for use by students and faculty members and thus to support the teaching programme of the college.

            A modern college is a large and comlex one. So a proper aquaintance with its organisation is essential for effective use. Therefore an attempt has been made in this section to acquaint the users with the library collection, functional units of the library and their location, scheme of classification of books, shelf arrangement in the library and the methodology for using the library catalogue so as to help them to find out their desired books and allied reading material in the library.

           A library to be managed successfully and effectively requires certain rules to guide the users as well as the staff members working in the library. Besides serving as a guide to the user , the rules become instrumental in acquainting them with the kinds of services, which the library is capable of providing to them. Hence a set of rules governing this library has been outlined here.

          The total collection of the library is now 116688. A total of 1216 books of different departments were added during this session. The library subscribe to sixteen dailies and fifty four journals/magazine, both Indian and foreign, relating to different subjects.

The ground floor reading room of library was Air conditioned in the summer of 2007 making it user friendly and welcoming. The Reserve section reading room will also be air conditioned for the new session.

            Library has increased University network resources with five terminals in the reserve section for research purposes in addition to three terminals in the reading room.
