Col TPS Gill, Director, Yogananda Knowledge Centre said that the Vice Chancellor was of the view that through the opening of library, many of the Solan youth who aspire for higher studies or for appearing in competitive examinations such as IAS and Allied services, Himachal Pradesh State Services, Banking Services and Defence Services, will be able to access books, magazines and journals which otherwise may not be in their reach.
The library will be open for them from 5 am to 9 pm every day. It is worth noting that the University library is very well stocked with books and journals on diverse subjects. It also has a newly opened centre for Theology , called Yogananda Centre for Theology, which the people with interest in religion and spirituality will find particularly invigorating.
The library will keep a non-refundable security deposit of Rs 1000/- for life membership of the library which will enable them to draw books from the library.
