The library boasts an extensive collection of over 30,000 physical books and provides access to the N-LIST program initiated by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD). This program includes more than 6,000 journals from the e-SodhSindhu consortium, over 199,500 e-books under N-LIST, and access to 600,000+ e-books through the National Digital Library of India (NDLI). Additionally, the library has recently subscribed to the Government's visionary One Nation One Subscription (ONOS) scheme under VikshitBharat@2047.
