About us
MIT Central Library, since its inception, has played an important role in catering to the needs of its users. With the advent of science and technology and with the changes in the information-seeking behaviour of the user, the library has played an important role in meeting their needs using the latest technologies. The state-of-the-art library, located at the heart of the campus, has a rich print and online collection having more than 10000 active users.
