A well equipped digital library is an  integral part of the our Main Library. At the moment 30 PC are available to provide access to E-Library. More workstations are being provided to extend this facility.

Digital libraries are organized collections of digital information. They combine the structure and gathering of information, which libraries and archives have always done, with the digital representation that computers have made possible. A digital library is a managed collection of information, with associated services, where the information is stored in digital formats and accessible over a network. “Digital libraries are organizations that provide the resources, including the specialized staff, to select, structure, offer intellectual access to, interpret distribute, preserve the integrity of, and ensure the persistence over time of collections of digital works so that they are readily and economically available for use by a defined community or set of communities.
