Interlibrary Loan & Document Delivery Service
Interlibrary Loan service is to obtain materials needed primarily for research or academic purposes which are not available in AEU Digital Library. (This service however is limited to the Staff and Students of AEU.) The AeU library has signed the memorandum with the National Library which gives access to 500 libraries in the country under this Scheme. In addition to this, under the Document Delivery Service (DDS) of the same scheme, copies of journal articles and or book chapters may be obtained from member libraries.

User Education & Information Skills
With information becoming increasingly complex and varied, it is essential that users know how to access information resources, how to evaluate, manage, and use them effectively. Information skills are essential to the success of a student’s academic career, and to become an independent and lifelong learner.
User Education and Information Skills sessions are provided by the library. Special workshop sessions to aid users on information searching are organised regularly by the librarians. Post graduates are given information skills workshops as part of the Research Methodology Sessions. The library staff is available to help students within the Library at all times. On-line information searching guides are available from the library website.
