Also, our students can access its database based on the contract with M. F. Akhundov library. We also have rare copies that are specially protected. In our electronic information room, we have many computers with high memory”.

MP Aydin Mirzazade also emphasized that the rich library here will make a great contribution to students: "Several foreign languages are taught at the university, students from abroad come and study here. You have a very rich library. You have conferences with the participation of thousands of students. The university of any country is an indicator of the potential of that country. It is very good that we have strong, well-established private universities along with our state universities."
