I am talking from the Library at IIMA which is one of the central resources of this Institute. It's not just a central but one of the best maintained resources over here. I avail several services from library. One thing is for help in my research, most of the times I find most of the journal articles I need in the library. And when I could find someone I send out a mail, it's just a matter of hours before I get the article that I need so it's very prompt and very quick service that can be offered here. Then there is also one feature which I really like that no other library that have been part of does, one is they send out mail on Monday. Every Monday talking about the new books they have procured and this list is anywhere between 30 to 50 books so we get an idea about what are the books that are coming in and once you so I make sure I go through the PDF which has information of the book cover and some information of the book and then we can reserve it and come picking up later. So you get an idea about the books that are in the market which are current and also you get exposed to wide variety of topics at the same time. I really liked that service and I have not seen that anywhere else. Then apart from that this library is very open to its community members not just the people who are part of the institute but also the family members who are part of the faculty, members and students. So I have my family members who walks- in without any worries and then they can access the resources over here so the library is very open and is also very supportive to everybody who walks- in through its doors or sends them an email. So when you come to IIMA do make sure you visit the library.

Vikram Sarabhai Library primarily is a very critical resource for the students as well as the faculty alike. I as a faculty mainly use the library mostly for my research activities especially for the journal articles that I need to access. Most of the journal articles that I need for my research activities are generally available from the library. For very few cases where the journal articles are not subscribed by the library, I find the staff members very eager to procure them very promptly through the services like inter library loan facility. Apart from that, I often use the library facilities for reference books for the courses that I teach. In very few instances where the books that I am looking for are not available, the library is very prompt in procuring them for me. In particular, I would like to commend the very dedicated team of staff members who are supporting this library. For any paper that I need for my research, they are very prompt in procuring them from other sources if they are not available.

I think the best part of this library is you get what you want and that you get quickly than you expected sometimes. Suppose if you are looking for a new book just send one line email and you get it quickly or may be in a three - four days' time and it's not just an information storehouse it's just the way the library shares the information across every stakeholders of the institute. Like for example, if a data is added they arrange a detailed seminar about the data, how to access the data at the same time they share if a new book is arrived and not only they keep on sharing the list of books but the contents of the book. Now it gives a feeling all the time to look around the message that we are receiving from the library and you really feel like at least in a day once you visit the library and this has happened not just because it is a reputed institute library. This is all possible because of a set of people who oversee it, they are extremely good, they are competent, they are always smiling, they are always there to help you out. You go and ask I want this they are ready to help you.

Talking about the library, I think we have a wonderful library staff who are highly professional, they are highly courteous. It's a very good library being taken care by competent staff. One of the outstanding features of the library is we have a very efficient website through which you can search for books, place hold on books, suggest new books, renew books and all of that can be done just by a click of the mouse, so it's a very useful tool. Another thing that is again very helpful is we keep getting very frequent updates, mailers from the library staff informing about new additions in the library, on the website, what new books have been purchased, what new databases have been subscribed by the library. Hence, there is a mutual exchange of communication that happens from the library to the users. In terms of usefulness, in terms of ease, there is a very useful, very good service that we have at the institute.

Overall, I do not feel shy to say that we have one of the best libraries.

The Vikram Sarabhai Library has a special place in the campus and in the life of students here. There are three important aspects or parameters for a library. Vikram Sarabhai Library is one of the most conducive places for doing research. Second is the regular library service. As far as my knowledge goes, the library has more than 2 Lakh titles and several copies of each of the titles so you never fall short of accessing or finding a certain book. The third most important and crucial aspect that links up the whole thing is the staff. The staff at Vikram Sarabhai Library is not just knowledgeable; they are very helpful and very cooperative. In terms of professionalism, I would definitely rate them at least 9.8 on 10 if not 10 on 10.

Vikram Sarabhai Library has something for everyone that is the best part of the library. The staff create a conducive environment for you to do research or gain knowledge. How innovative Vikram Sarabhai Library is, thinking ahead of time, the Library has bring in Kindle Lending because in the future it will be more about digital access, e-library so now itself the Vikram Sarabhai Library is moving towards digital lending.

The best aspect of IIMA community is that everyone here enjoys reading using the many facilities that the VSL has for every generation. The staff is highly dedicated to operate VSL for 24x7. The absolute best thing is the online catalog and the option to hold a book thereafter. The latest books added to the shelf are also notified regularly keeping in mind the interest of the reader. The IIMA community is lucky to have VSL.

The kind of facilities Library provides really encourage students to come and read. I appreciate the initiatives like provision of putting a request to purchase any book, theme based display of books, the intimation of new arrivals and provision of finding books on basis of frequency of issuing. The whole library staff is very cordial. I really appreciate the Institute for extending such a facility.

IIMA library has been one of the best libraries I have ever visited. For me, it was equivalent to another dwelling in addition to my room. I have spent more hours at the library than my room for various purposes academic and non-academic. The variety of books available to issue and flexibility to renew them without having to visit library makes it even better. The service that I utilized fully was the Kindle provided. The availability of Kindle Unlimited service helped me read numerous books and provide a welcome change in my daily routine.

Vikram Sarabhai Library is one of the unique and great knowledge centers for the knowledge seeker. VSL provides the infrastructure, facility, and staff professionalism which help IIMA fraternity to receive quick service and prompt response.

VSL is one of the best libraries that I have visited so far. I have thoroughly enjoyed the silence zones in the library. Majority of my time on campus has been spent in the library. The simple reason being one is able to work with utmost efficiency at this place. This is also one of the most professionally run libraries that I have used. The staff is extremely cordial and prompt including the security guard. They implement suggestions in lightning fast speed. I have seen VSL evolve in unimaginable ways over these years. I also love to attend many of the events that are organized by VSL. Apart from the endless stacks of books, very useful set of database, e-books, archives etc., the library is a place offering various seating areas. VSL is much more than a library for me.

Thank you to all VSL staff members for making the IIMA library feel like home. In the summer months when the campus was empty, you could find me sitting in the cool environs of the library every day, working on my research project, and feeling super productive due to this place's wonderful atmosphere. In the one year that I have been here, I must have put in umpteen research queries and requests for assistance, and the librarians have been extremely prompt in their guidance. It is wonderful that I can order new books that I find relevant and useful. It feels like I am able to add a little part of what appeals to me to the library's vast collection, that will someday be picked up and adored by another bibliophile! Every Monday, I eagerly wait for the 'new arrivals' email, and add several books to my wishlist or place them on hold. The 'hold' feature is so thoughtful--thank you to all the VSL staff members who went in search of books I had requested. The RemoteXS feature helps me stay on track with my assignments even when I am away from campus. Everything put together, this library makes me feel like someone is taking care of my learning and personal growth--both academic and otherwise. And for this I am extremely grateful :)

Vikram Sarabhai Library is my go-to place for reading, research, and discussions. Wonderful ambiance, world-class resources (both digital and physical collection) and helpful staff are the key highlights that set apart this library from any other library in the country.

Well equipped with resources and databases, the library stands out as an epitome of Business Knowledge in the world. The friendly staff and the propitious atmosphere is something that VSL possesses and is the backbone to the entire structure.

The kind of infrastructure, resources, databases that are provided in VSL encourages us to come and read at the Library. The whole library staff is very cordial.

Vikram Sarabhai Library has played a crucial role in aiding my learning at the institute. The setup of the library encourages collaborative learning with peers, which is very important in a B-school. Particularly, I am thankful to the support of the library staff, even during odd-hours. My requests to procure a specific book and subscribe to a database were promptly addressed. Guidance with the usage of the 3D printer is also commendable. Since all of their services are digitized, it was very convenient for many of my batch-mates who lived on the other end of the campus. Especially, facilities like Holding a book, online renewal and drop-off facility at the new campus were very useful. During my stint as the student IT representative, I had the chance to work with the IT and website team of VSL, improving the usability and accessibility of the web-based library services. Support during installation of the new printer at SAB was the best. It would not be an exaggeration if I were to state that I spent more time at the library than in my dorm room.
