The University library

Since its establishment in 1986, the university library has been closely linked to the educational and instructional processes at the university .
It aims  at providing information resources  to the university community in support of its instructional and research programs . It works towards developing the students skills in using its resources to achieve their academic goals.

The Library collection comprises 155,000 books, and 45,000 volumes of periodicals back issues  .
In organizing its collection ,the Library adopts the Library of Congress Classification Scheme, and uses the Anglo-American Cataloging Rules (AACR2) and the International Standard of Bibliographic Description (ISBD).

To cope with the new technologies in the field of library and information science ,the Library started in 1993 to offer retrieved information services through a good number of necessary databases, which are published on CD-ROM or online (internet)subscriptions.
