During the early years of the Central Library, it served as the college of Koneru Lakshmaiah College of Engineering (KLEF) and was established in 1981-82. The construction of the new building is similar to that of a greenhouse, with natural light shining inside the library.
The Central Library has a large collection of documents and is complemented by more than 1,95,000 books and 32,000 non-book materials, including well-known databases.It contains materials relevant to the Engineering, Science, and Humanities courses, including Agricultural Engineering, Pharmacy, Architecture, Law, and specialized books and journals.
A new building has been facilitated on par with international standards with modern facilities. The library is centrally air-conditioned to provide a comfortable experience for library users while they read and learn. The Central Library is ecstatic to announce that it has been fully automated through the use of KOHA open source software and RFID technology. Patrons can access the subscribed E-resources by using KLEF E-Library Mobile APP.
More than 1000 users can accommodate and enjoy learning and reading facilities in the study rooms, discussion rooms, and open reading hall.
