The Libraries play a major role in the collection of diverse information in the World.

The books analyzing demonstrates that, this collection is well structured, but with fragility in some areas of course such as, in inorganic chemistry that has most of the books in english and not used by the students, in the analytical there are few volumes for the area and experimental chemistry and there are few updated books. The questionnaire analyzing the applied, are observed that most of the interviewees use the library's collection in beginning of course.
