About Library
As Thomas Jefferson rightly said, “A lawyer without books would be like a workman without tools.” A library plays the most important role in any law college as it acts as the primary source of knowledge for law students. It offers students of law access of reference books, journals, bare acts and audio-visual aids too. In addition to reference material, a law library acts as a place where young minds introspect, meet and discuss the intertwining of law and society.
Shankarrao Chavan Law College’s Library provides its students the infrastructure and services for their intellectual enhancement. It is located at the ground floor of the college building with a reading room capacity of 60. The library uses iSlim Software from 2017. System for Library Information and Management Library Automation is used for automatic and semi-automatic data processing machines to perform such traditional library activities as acquisition, cataloguing and circulation. Bar-code technology is being used for circulation of books and periodicals. Our Library is equipped with OPAC which can be accessed by students and faculty by scanning the QR Code through laptops and smart phones. The E-library has 80 computers exclusively for students to access legal databases and other resources subscribed as well open access. Library premises are covered under Wi-fi zone and CCTV system. Additionally, the library provides students with audio-visual and Xerox facilities.
