Wireless connection/computers- There is wireless connection within and around the library. Students can therefore use their laptops and also the computers already provided.
Computers- About 300 computers are fixed in the library computer rooms for your use.
Library staff- The Library has a strong team of Professional, Para-professional and support staff who are always ready to assist.
Furniture- The library has comfortable chairs, reading tables, and computer tables.
Most of the furniture is delicate.
Use of escalators- Escalators are power driven hence the need for caution when using them.
For safety reasons, students with special needs are discouraged from using the escalators unless they feel are comfortable to do so.
Lifts-There are three (3) lifts for use by staff and students. Lifts will not be allowed to operate with more than the allowed number of people (load).
stair cases/tiles- Durable tiles have been used on the floor in the entire library and also on the stair case. To lengthen the life of the tiles particularly on the stair cases, be careful not to chip the edges of the stair tiles as you walk.
Painting- The library is well painted in mostly blue and white.
Reading space- There is adequate reading space provided including the library basement. A research common is also available in fifth floor.
Safety - The design of the building is such that there are open internal areas within the building (Atrium). Students are not to sit on the rails inside the building or near the Atrium to avoid accidental falls.
