The main library of the school has two branches: the main library and the main building branch. As of the end of 2012, the school’s main library has a total area of 15,500 square meters, 1,900 reading seats, and 890,300 paper collections, including 827,800 books, nearly 62,500 bound periodicals, and 1066 subscriptions to Chinese and foreign periodicals. The collections of e-books and e-journals have reached 1,296,000 volumes and 141,400 volumes, respectively. There are more than 8,000 CD-ROMs and 25,000 pieces attached to the books. In addition, 49 Chinese and foreign language network databases (including mirrors), such as Chinese academic journals, reading knowledge base, SCI, EI, IEL, ASME, Elsevier, etc., have been purchased, which correspond to the disciplines of the school, featuring electric power and power literature. It also covers a multi-disciplinary and multi-form collection document resource system such as economics, management, information and humanities.

The entire building of the library is an advanced modular structure at home and abroad, breaking the traditional boundaries of collection, borrowing, and reading. It adopts a large-bay layout and fully open-shelf management. This integrated pattern of open borrowing and reading not only provides teachers and students with a good reading and learning environment, but also creates conditions for readers to use the collection of literature resources conveniently and quickly.
