The Library moved into its new location on the 6 th floor of the existing building in August 2006. The new and improved library is located in 2500 sq ft space provided on the top floor of the building. The library is fully airconditioned and has a superb aerial view of the vicinity from its high vantage point owing to windows along its three sides. Its location provides for an ideal place for readers to come and collect their thoughts or read or browse on the internet. Books and journals are housed in compactors (movable racks). Additional storage space has been provided along the walls in such a way so as not to disturb the aesthetics of the building. Readers' consoles provide the seclusion needed for concentrated reading both for scientists and students.
The library presently subscribes 120 national and international journals and has an excellent collection of books, monographs, atlases etc. in the areas of biochemistry, immunology, endocrinology, stem cell biology, structural biology and bioinformatics.
