''Libraries are sacred time machines where knowledge flows and magic is eternal ''

A college library is a structure, a world of wisdom which has a collection of books, audio-visual material and other content that serves common use to meet the educational, informative, recreational needs of the users. Library can satisfy our thirst and curiosity for knowledge. This helps in the personal growth of the person and development. It broadens our thinking and makes us more open to modern world.

The college library was established in the year 1955, when the college was started as an extension of the Little Flower Convent Girls High School Mammiyoor. In the following year, it was shifted to this area along with different courses of studies. The college library has in stock nearly 63000 volumes covering all areas of subjects. Almost 500 new titles are being tacked on annually. It receives about 101 periodicals of general and research nature. The library has two sections; Humanities and Science continence.

The college library is much updated with technological changes and is making greater use of emerging technologies such as KOHA, DSpace, INFLBNET- NLIST, JAWS (for blind students) etc. to make it more popular and useful among the patrons. Along with that the college library provides e-journals and e-books.

We have an active library club ''AURA'' which serves as a platform to empower the students to champion library activities. The students in the club are given opportunities to network with their peers. The library club aims to inculcate the love of reading to all the staff and students of the college.

The library is kept open through the year except public holidays.

'' The more you know, the more that you'll know; the more that you learn, the more place you'll go ''

We have an active Library Club which aims to foster the reading atmosphere among students. The Library Club was inaugurated December 2013. We have around 150 members in our club named AURA. Our Librarian Sr.Joicy A.J gives us maximum support to run the club effectively. She supervises all the activities done by the Library Club. The club has organized three committees namelyExecutive, Editorial and Social respectively. We have gathered all our Library Club members to decide the ventures of Erudite aiming the thirst for knowledge. We have arranged one-day trip to visit the University Library. Weekly we publish college newspaper 'The Argonautica' depicting all our activities along with images. Annually we conduct Pusthakotsavwith assistance of different departments. Library Club meeting is arranged every month. We encourage our students to engage in charity activities. We have our own notice board on which we daily display word meanings 'Glossary' to enrich the vocabulary in students. Also there is an active participation of the students in maintanence of the library.
