College of Engineering, Kidangoor has a full-fledged
Library and Information Center, which provides wide
range of reading and reference materials to the
students. Students can use the library from 8.30 AM to
5.30 PM on all working days and Saturdays. The library
has a collection of over 9000 volumes of books, 17
technical national and 17 international journals, 4
popular periodicals and 6 National dailies now. We are

have a wide collection of general and Informative books
also. A student can borrow 4 books (maximum) and 1
journal at a time. The books cover the syllabus of all
the branches in our college. The Internet facility of
the library is now functioning in the Computer Lab and
any information on net can be downloaded. We have a very
good collection of over 800 numbers of CDs in our
Library. The titles available in CDs can be either read
in the computer provided at the library or issued and
thus introducing the students to the digital age. One of
the remarkable changes is the Computerization of
Library. For this purpose Library Management Software
has been developed in our own Computer Lab. Now the
search for books and journals isl just clicks and
pointers. The library is undergoing expansion in each
semester and it is expected to reach a total collection
of more than 10,000 volumes of books when the college
reaches its full strength. With the co-operation from
the District SC/ST Welfare Board, the college started a
Book Bank Scheme for the exclusive use of SC/ST
students. Under this scheme the library has over 600
titles of books in the last academic year. The SC/ST
students can borrow two additional textbooks under this
scheme.
