The WULN claims of a print book stock of 70, 000 volumes spread across all faculties of the university whose bibliographic details can be accessed by staff and students in all the faculties via Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC).

The library has access to some electronic journals through the UGC – (CONSAL Consortium of Sri Lankan Academic Libraries) which are available to our users through the internet and are accessible for use at one’s own convenience. To create awareness of the resources available to enable users make full use of them, the library organizes orientation days for any new library user which is usually griped up by conducting continuous user education.
