The Library at Anant National University has been redesigned and renamed into our Learning Commons. It is intended to be the academic resource centre of our university, and is invaluable to our objective of enhancing study, research, teaching and workspace practices at AnantU. The aim of the Learning Commons is to provide an ultra-modern environment that encourages both, the creation and the dissemination of knowledge in all of our academic programs.
The Learning Commons have been outfitted with state-of-the-art IT infrastructure and are backed by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID).
The Library is spread over an area of 420 square metres and includes an ultra-modern reading space that can seat a total of 100 students, a cyber space with the best computer technology available and most importantly, an integrated information desk with the ability to cater to any need of our readers.
We also try to engage our students by holding a great variety of events, such as book launches, book discussion sessions, motivational lectures, documentary screenings, seminars and so on.
We at AnantU believe that it is our purpose to provide our students, our faculty, our staff and researchers with easy access to world class information. To this end, library staff are always available and more than happy to help our readers find resources, provide tips on searching, advice on references and more. Additionally, we frequently conduct user education programs for our students and faculty members to spread awareness about online resources and plagiarism check software.
We try to ensure that our library services at the Learning Commons not only meet, but exceed the quality standards.

Our Learning Commons feature a book section with over 4500 books that is divided into 5 primary sections. These are books on art, design and architecture, books for general reading, students’ project reports, theses, dissertation and also reference materials. We have a large collection of books on wide variety of subjects that reflect our commitment to providing design education from a multidisciplinary viewpoint. Currently, we are subscribed to 46 Indian and international academic journals. We have a special Archival collection that consists of research projects and bound volumes of old and rare periodicals.

Learning Commons has subscription of scholarly journals and magazines which helps one to connect with new innovation, curriculum, and the world. This collection has deeply embedded in the Learning Commons that we do preserve the journals for longer period of time.
