Up-gradation of services is on cards in all educational institutions. It is further
accelerated by the NAAC evaluation. In case of our college, one area in which the necessity of a lot of improvement was pointed out by the NAAC and was obviously felt by many, has been the services of the B.J. Wadia Library. The DES and the college have taken the NAAC remarks seriously and have launched the campaign to computerize the B.J. Wadia Library. The necessary software has been purchased and contract signed to prepare a database.

Preparation of a database of nearly 2,00,000 books has been an arduous task, but finally it is done and that too with all the entries double checked. However, this database would have been useless unless these books had been physically verified, something which was not done in the last 22 years.

This enormous task of physical stock taking was started on November 15, 2006 by a team of about 25 people, consisting of some past students of B.Lib. course, some people coming regularly to the college as junior examiners and some students of the college working in Earn-and-learn, and of course, the library staff. The team worked relentlessly through many difficulties. Dust was everywhere. Sometimes there would be no lights. The space between bookshelves was very cramped. All this could not dampen the moral of the team and nearly one and half months after they started, the team completed physical verification, stamping and noting the accession number of 1,55,806 books on December 28,2006.
