We at Central Library provide services, resources, products, and expertise to support every phase of your study, teaching, research and extension from discovery and design to creation and sharing. The section takes care of the Faculty Profiling System of IIT Delhi and provides different types of raw and analysed data for different purposes to help institute achieve its goals including for the ranking purpose as well.
Outreach services are now an important component of the libraries through which users are trained to make optimum use of the resources subscribed by the library or available in open access. The section also has the responsibility to conduct Author/Publishing Workshops and to help the users in making use of the academic writing and research tools including Grammarly, different online bibliographic and full-text databases, eBooks, etc.
We further plan to strengthen research services, help to discover and access library and archival materials, data, and e-resources beyond the library catalogue and topic guide for the resources selected by subject specialists to focus your research on a topic, projects and partnerships between the Libraries and research community, to arrange Workshop Specialists to provide instructions on research methods, etc.
The section is guided by all the relevant people from the Central Library who have expertise and interest in this domain of the system under the overall supervision of Librarian & Head, Central Library.
