The library adopts the Library of Congress
Classification Scheme in the assignment of subject headings. It also
follows the rules specified under the University Library Organic
Act when it comes to the development and maintenance of resources.
To select and acquire
materials such as books, periodicals, journals, pamphlets, maps,
microforms, films, tapes, records and other media that are tools of
instruction of the Institute, is the primary function of the library.
This is done through purchase from our library book fund and donation
which are received from friends of the Institute. The choice of such
materials is determined by the aims of the Institute and by the nature
of its Graduate program. The faculty participates in the selection and
examination of books to be acquired. The Library-Faculty Relations
Committee works for the development of the library.
