The Central Library of SSK was established in the year 1999 with an aim to strengthen Kalakshetra’s vision and mission to impart quality and spirituality-blended value education to all the sections of society.
The library offers meaningful and quality resources catering to the requirements of the different disciplines of society, from the Humanities, Social Sciences, and Sciences. With a collection of about 42,000 books (approx.), the library is determined to provide meaningful services to its users. Keeping in mind the fast and rapidly changing scenario in academics in contemporary times, the library has also proposed further amendments incorporating much more advanced technological, ICT-based, and digitally sound services to its users in the near future.
As part of the library modernization initiative, SOUL 3.0 (Software for University Libraries) has been installed to automate library operations and establish a digital library management system. The software will enable efficient management of acquisitions, cataloguing, circulation, member databases, Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC), and report generation.
Future Plan: First and foremost, setting up a Digital Lab with internet access and a huge number of computers, as the Govt of India also lays much emphasis on the digital revolution. Procuring a good number of highly developed computers, so we can provide the National Digital Library Services to our users. Providing 24x7 Wi Fi service within the library campus. Establishing a Divgyan Corner for the specially enabled users. Proposed: Setting up RFID in the Library.
