RULES AND GUIDELINES
Silence & Care of Books
- Complete silence must be observed in ARIVAGAM at all times, as it will provide a conducive atmosphere for serious study.
- Damages done to library books and journals (writing or marking or tearing or disfiguring or taking them out of the library without due permission) will be treated as a serious offence. If anyone loses or damages a book, he/she should inform the Librarian and bear the loss.
Book Lending
- All Library transactions must be done in person. Only books from the stack are given out. No volume is to be taken out of the reference section.
- Lending of books can be allotted under the category of following users.
CATEGORY | NO. OF BOOKS | DURATIONDAYS |
Students | 2 | 7 |
| Teaching Staff | 5 | One Semester |
- However, all the books must be returned on time and renewal can be made when no one else requests the same book.
- All members (staff and students) must return all the books for the end-of-the semester checking. Defaulters will be fined, or deprived of library privileges.
- Back issues of the current year of any journal (i.e., not the current issue, nor a bound volume) can be borrowed from the Library. While borrowing, the same rules will be applied as we have for the books. Hence, no current issue of any journal should be taken away from the Library.
Access to the Reference & the Stack Section
- Access to the stack is restricted to the teaching and the library staff only. However, the other members are also permitted inside the stack during book-Issue timings
Honor System
- We trust each library user to be honest and to look after the books and journals. Kindly cooperate with the library staff and do not bring books, magazines or bag into the library. If you have any such items, please leave them in the shelf at the entrance.
Computerized Search
- Bibliographical details the Library Books & Periodicals are available in database.
- Students can easily search their choice of the books and the articles from periodicals through Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC) from software package (Rovan).
