The library inherited the collection of the former St. Paul’s College, Awka, which is expanding and broadening as the College Library transforms into a University Library, balancing Sciences with earlier emphasis on the Arts, Social and Management Sciences.[7]The University Library also has an E-Library section. This is a section of the library in which the collections are stored in electronic media formats (as opposed to print, or other media) and accessible through computers. These are made available and accessible to the students and staff of the academic community.[8]References[edit]^ Paul University Awka^ “National Universities Commission”.
