Dear Students
Library is regarded as the backbone of an institution. As the gateways to knowledge, library plays a very pivotal role in the society. Library offers opportunities to its users for learning and creating new ideas that help in developing an innovative society. Amar Singh College used to host one of the richest libraries in the whole valley, however due to some uncalled-for circumstances, it lost most of its collection and infrastructure, but with the efforts of committed staff and higher authorities, we have and are still trying our level best to recover from the huge loss we bore and rather trying to give more than that to our users. It gives me immense pleasure to say that library at presents holds a good number of books of around 30000 apart from other services like reading room, issue-return, NLIST database subscription, NDLI subscription, suggestion box, Browsing Centre, Book Bank Facility. I recommend all the students to make more use of library services and take full advantage of all the services offered by the library as it is not just a one-way street, our library will only flourish more and more when we get the full support of our esteemed users as well.

Central Library of Amar Singh College came into existence with the establishment of the college itself in 1942. Earlier, the library was run from the Heritage building of the college, but later was shifted to its present place of existence having three floors whereby each floor is dedicated to various sections like Text section in ground floor; reference section, browsing section and reading room in first floor. The second floor needs renovation at various places, proposal for which is under consideration with the concerned authorities. Earlier, library was having a rich collection of books (60000 plus) but the floods of 2014 damaged and destroyed a maximum portion of book collection. However, it is worth mentioning that with the efforts of the library staff almost 10000 books were saved that time. At present, library holds the collection of around 30000 books, which include the books purchased from state funds, UGC funds, and books for career counselling. Library is providing various services to its users over the years like Issue-Return (RFID/SOUL/Manual), Reading Room, Browsing Centre, Reprography, Suggestion Box, Book Bank Facility, Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC). Library is looking forward to start various services for its users in future like Digital Display Board service, Orientation Programmes for the use of library services, Subscription of research journals, E-resource facility, Book exhibitions, etc.
