Dear all Library users,

Please be informed that there will be an upgrade exercise for Virtua Library System as follows :

Date: 21st – 25th November 2016 (Monday – Friday) (24 x 7 days)

During the above mentioned period, several Library services at all IMU Libraries will be temporarily interrupted such as:
1) Browsing, searching, Borrowing and renewing Library books.
2) Library Online Catalog (CHAMO) and online renewal.
