Library
“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of Library.” – Jorge Luis Borges 1899-1986. Argentine writer.
The library at SFS, Guwahati, is one of the best places for a learner to be in. Well-furnished and designed to the taste, it is an intriguing place not only for students but also for every educator and learner. The calmness and quietness of the place make it a great place for absorbing knowledge. The library has been well stocked with books of all sorts including best sellers, an e-library facility, and also a large number of periodicals and magazines. The school is committed to ongoing investment in print books and digital technology such as Kindle and other e-book sources and resources. It is not only a place for reading but a spot to do research and in-depth study for students and educators to create a thirst for intellectual pursuit.
