Effective management and utilisation of the library resources in a School Library requires incorporation of modern technologies as the Librarian alone has to do all the tasks in the library. This always causes delays in assisting the students to get the information they require as well as circulation of books to maximum number students in library periods allotted to the classes.

To facilitate the effective use of books the School Library has started computerisation with the Library Management Software “E-Granthalaya” developed by National Informatic Centre. The software provides facilities for catalogue search, circulation of books and magazines, reservation of books, reports, fine collection, library statistics etc. Reports on the books issued, reservation status, search book by member and accession number, book suggestion and selection, budget expenditure and more.

All the library resources are barcoded.

Regular circulation of books is provided for classes VI and above. Generally the circulation is done during the library periods, but in order to encourage better and more utilisation of library resources the circulation is done on free periods of the library.

Library periods are there for every class starting from VI to XII. During library periods students can issue and return the books. The students are encouraged to maintain their reading lists and to submit book reviews of the books they have read.

Class libraries are functioning from I to V. The teachers in charges of the respective classes select books from the library according to the academic standard and reading habit of the students. Books are provided for each class and the teacher concerned will distribute the books to the students during library periods. The books can be changed from the main library from time to time.

The new arrivals list is displayed in the notice board. The new books are also displayed on New Additions display rack. The book jackets are also prominently displayed in the library.

There is a good collection of reference books in the library in different subject areas. These books are not issued and allowed to read only in the library.

Some books are gifted to our library by staff, students and publishers. We put these books in our library by giving them a special accession number started with “G” and maintain their record in separate ledger called gifted books ledger. We encourage students to donate their old books in good condition so that they can help other children also.

WE introduce a concept of Drop Everything And Read (DEAR). To support the students, we focused on reading habit, and have started to add more high interest fictions and story books etc. and these have been used constantly.

The library organises the regular quizzes for the Quiz Club members.
