Book Loan Statistics for November 2018
The month of November continued to see an increase of books loaned by students. It is interesting to note that the process of checking in/out of books is now mostly done through the check in/out kiosks found at the main entrance door. We observe some students coaching their fellow students showing the step-by-step procedure to be followed, both in borrowing (check-out) and in returning (check-in) of books. The subject field most used continues to be “P” – Language and Literature, both in Arabic and English.

Library Staff stationed at the Circulation desk – and for that matter at the Information desk on every floor - assume a more active, dynamic role of assisting users in the effective use of the OPAC, in guiding students at the computer pool, and supervising students using the Discussion Rooms and those studying at the Quiet Study Areas.
We thank the active members of the academic community who have used the Library facilities and resources to its maximum level, for their great spirit of cooperation and for taking care and safeguarding the over-all order, discipline in the Library; and helping us maintain an ethos of serious study and scholarship.
