Students must take at least one book in a month and return it on its due date with a review of the book. No limit is set for availing books. The more the merrier! But only one book is issued at a given time. Review charts and points will be provided in a worksheet.

The schedule of book issue is stated in the library. Students should take due care of the library books and should return them in good shape without causing damage to the books.

If a student is not able to return the book on time, he should inform the librarian and take extended permission from him. No dues certificate has to be availed from the librarian at the end of each term for availing the exam hall ticket.

Students should observe proper discipline inside the library.
