Classification & Access

The library uses the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) Scheme — a globally recognised system that organises material by subject — making it easy for readers to locate books on related topics within the same shelf area.

The library follows an open-access arrangement: members are free to walk through the stacks, browse the collection at leisure and choose books before issuing them at the Circulation Desk.

Suggesting new titles — Faculty members and students may submit purchase suggestions to the Librarian at any time. A standard "Book Suggestion" form is available at the library counter.
