The KRC subscribes to several e-resources (journals, databases, books… etc.) for its users from different publishers or aggregators to support teaching, learning, research, and other academic activities at the institute.
The terms and conditions for using these resources are mentioned in every license agreement signed between the Publishers and the University.
Electronic resources licensed by the University Library are exclusively for the use of the valid and eligible users of the GITAM (Deemed to be University) community for research and academic purposes only.
While accessing these resources, users should adhere to the following policies and guidelines:
Users can access all the e-resources, within the campus by using the IPs of GITAM (Deemed to be University).
Most e-resources can also be accessed remotely through the remote access platform.
Please contact the KRC office or Digital Library for a remote access account. All users are to take these guidelines seriously, and any violations will be reported to the relevant School authorities for appropriate action.
The above rules are intended to regulate the best use of KRC and will be reviewed periodically to meet the changing needs. The Library authorities have the exclusive right to amend or restrict or suspend rules without prior notice.
Any changes in the Library rules, instructions, or information to members will be communicated through email and notified on the University Library webpage and the library notice board as and when required.
Interlibrary loan (ILL) occurs when a qualifying library borrows from another qualifying library on behalf of a patron. If a library receives a request from anyone other than a qualifying library, then that request is considered a document delivery, or an ILL. It is intended to broaden access to materials for GITAM students, faculties, and researchers.
A user can request an ILL material through email to the respective library with accurate bibliographic details of books, available library details and patron details. A patron can request only one book for limited period.
For ILL assistance, please contact with the KRC/library staff of respective campus or the school library staff.
