Library

The library of the college is spacious and computerized. It is well equipped with reference books, journals, and periodicals.The scope of the collections reflects the commitment to advanced study in education and its various dimensions. The seating arrangement is comfortable for students, they can also move around and browse through the different sections, and flip through journals and newspapers. Users can also check out the new arrivals and upcoming events on the bulletin board.

The library connects us with the insight and knowledge, painfully extracted from Nature, of the greatest minds that ever were, with the best teachers, drawn from the entire planet and from all our history, to instruct us without tiring, and to inspire us to make our own contribution to the collective knowledge of the human species. I think the health of our civilization, the depth of our awareness about the underpinnings of our culture and our concern for the future can all be tested by how well we support our libraries.
