The ISEC library has an impressive collection of books, official and non-official documents and back volumes of professional journals and periodicals. It has more than 100,000 titles (Books : 26,000, Bound Volumes of Periodicals : 20,000 and Special publications-Govt. Institutional publications etc : 60000) and 335 microfiche copies of periodicals. About 350 professional foreign and Indian journals are subscribed.   The World Bank and a number of other international organisations have recognised it as a Depository Library.  A notable treasure of the library is the collection of valuable books as a bequest from Bharat Ratna Sir. M. Vishweshwaraiah.  This is considered to be one of the best reference libraries in social sciences in the south of the country.  As many as 2,679 scholars from various institutions visited the library in 1999 for referencing.  Now the library is fully computerised and people can access its database through on-line service.
