Message from the Desk of the Librarian
Dear Users,
Welcome to the Sheik Ul Aalam Central Library SKUAST-K!
Sheik Ul Aalam Central Library Shalimar (SKUAST-K) is known to be the most prestigious library and has a vision to become a world class ICT-driven centre of excellence which provide the most user-friendly environment for learning, teaching and research so that our Library becomes the centre-piece of scholarly activities in the University system. The increasing reliance on electronic resources lead to a shift toward access rather than storage and this requires an information infrastructure which should satisfy today’s need and future’s demands, enabling researchers to spend less time searching for information and more time upon reflection and experiment. The website is redesigned to serve as an online gateway to the scholarly scientific information available as a part of library resources or selected additional resources available in public domain providing access to information from anywhere in the world and serves as an important research tool for current students , faculty and staff of our University.
I am pleased to invite you to explore and utilize our web-based library and information services through this website. Ask your queries to our professional staff; use our library online database (OPAC); explore our numerous electronic resources and research tools. I also invite the Faculties to come and join in the common goal of knowledge generation, and effective dissemination.
And at last I ensure you that we are at your service!
Best regards,
University Librarian
SKUAST-K, Shalimar
