Library in limbo Another message adds: Multifarious problems have crippled the library facilities of around 12 thousand students and about five hundred teachers of Jahangirnagar University (JU) campus. Sources said the central library of the campus has no sufficient number of books and necessary journals for the students and researchers. Incomplete two-storied building of the library contains only 150 seats which cannot accommodate sufficient number of students and teachers to study here. The problems are being intensified as the university is increasing the number of departments without increasing library facilities, students said. The dilapidated library building has remained incomplete for 23 years without proper rooms, office and space for toilets for thousands of readers and researchers.
