The college library is committed to fostering a vibrant learning environment through a variety of programs and activities designed to engage and support our academic community. Some key activities include:

  • Library Orientation: At the beginning of each academic year, the library conducts orientation sessions for new students and faculty. These sessions provide an overview of library services, resources, and best practices for research, ensuring that users can make the most of what the library offers.
  • Regular Library Programs: Throughout the year, the library hosts a series of workshops, seminars, and reading circles aimed at enhancing research skills, promoting critical thinking, and encouraging lifelong learning. These programs are open to all students and faculty members.
  • Student Internships: The library offers internships to students interested in gaining hands-on experience in library science and management. Interns work alongside library staff, gaining valuable skills in information management, cataloguing, and customer service.
  • Theme-Based Reading Collections: To commemorate the anniversaries of historical figures and significant events, the library curates special reading collections. These displays feature books, articles, and multimedia resources that highlight the contributions of these personalities and explore the themes relevant to their legacies.
  • Collaborative Projects and Exhibits: The library frequently collaborates with academic departments and student organizations to host special exhibits, guest lectures, and collaborative research projects that enrich the academic experience and encourage interdisciplinary learning.
