St. Berchmans College - [SBC]

St. Berchmans College Central Library, the heart of the college, was established together with the college and was later shifted to a five-storied architectural dwelling in 1973. It has been a cornerstone of our community for decades. From humble beginnings to modern hubs of learning, we have evolved to meet our patrons. Our library holds 142228 books and subscribes to 157 journals and periodicals and has 4 databases, namely DELNET, N-List, EBSCO, and Prowess IQ.

The first floor has an open space for general reading of newspapers, periodicals, journals, etc., as well as the General Reference section. This floor also houses our digital library, the librarian’s cabin, and a conference room.

A separate Reference Section (PGR) has been allocated for PG students on the third floor.

Our library is also enriched with special collections, namely Gandhian Studies, Madhavikutty collections, Syriac collections, Durrell collections, Career collections, Hermann Gundert collections, Braille collections, Hindi collections, book bank collections, etc.
