LIBRARY ORIENTATION PROGRAMME

A two-day Library Orientation Programme was successfully conducted on 17 and 18 August 2026 at College Library. The primary objective of this initiative was to welcome the new intake of students and familiarise them with the college library's physical layout, services, and e-resources. To manage the student strength effectively while ensuring high-quality engagement, the orientation sessions were strategically divided across two days.







Each day's session reached a successful close with an interactive Open Forum / Q&A session. Students proactively clarified doubts regarding specific library operational hours, overdue fine structures, and institutional login credentials for off-campus e-resource access. The orientation successfully empowered the freshers with the critical navigational and research skills required to optimize the library's physical and digital ecosystems for their ongoing academic success.
