Role of the Library
Role of the Library
Often referred to as the “soul of education” and the heart of the college, the library plays a vital role in curriculum development and satisfies the intellectual curiosity of its readers. It actively supports the college's academic mission by acquiring and sharing resources that meet the curricular and general needs of students, faculty, and staff. The library’s efforts to procure, evaluate, and organize learning materials make it a valuable resource for teaching, learning, and research activities. This aligns with Dr. S. R. Ranganathan’s description of a library as a trinity of resources, users, and library staff.
