About the Library

The University library remains central to the aspirations of the university. It is not only a repository of research data and learning materials, but it is also central to the student experience, encouraging learning, dialogue, discussion and reflection.

Initially set up in 1960 under the Rural and Industrial Development Authority (RIDA) in Petaling Jaya, the main library was reestablished in 1972 when a new library building was completed in Shah Alam and named Perpustakaan Tun Abdul Razak 1. To date the library collection totals more than 600,500 volumes comprising books, pamphlets, conference papers, bibliographies, calendars and other non-print materials in microform format.

The library also holds about 5,000 periodical titles currently subscribed or received through request/donations. More than 50 online databases are subscribed from various journals.

In addition to the main library, there are eight other component libraries namely;

  • Perpustakaan Tun Abdul Razak 2 (1986)
