CPSP Library
Learning Resource Centre
To assist researchers and students during the process of literature search, a decision was taken by the authorities of CPSP in 2003 to establish a Learning Resources Centre, which would serve as a gateway to useful information available on the international online databases and archives. The staff designated at the LRC ensures that the best possible information available online is provided to its members with respect to their area of research or study. The LRC Department especially provides support point for members who are carrying out research, or writing their synopsis or dissertations.
