History
The library was founded in 1993, with most of its books transferred from other faculties. Since then, collaborative and cooperative efforts of the library and academic staff as well as students has led to enrichment of the library resources. In particular, far more English books are now available, thanks to the support from the dean and vice deans of the school. The library space has expanded, and become more suitable after moving to the new building, and now consists of various sections.
