On 3rd July 2025, a group of eight undergraduate students from Joya Gogoi College, Khumtai
(Golaghat District, Assam), led by the college librarian Dr. Deepa Baruah, visited the
Knowledge Management Centre (KMC) of the National Institute of Design (NID) Assam as a
part of their four Year Under Graduate Programme (FYUGP) of Dibrugarh University.
The students were warmly welcomed by the Head Librarian of KMC, who gave them a guided
tour of the library. The visitors were introduced to the RFID-based automated library systems,
along with the wide range of resources and services offered by the Knowledge Management
Centre.
The Head Librarian delivered an insightful lecture on “Digital Learning and E-Resources”,
highlighting the growing role of digital content in education, the importance of digital literacy,
and the evolving responsibilities of libraries in supporting online and remote learning. The
lecture session was followed by a lively and engaging discussion involving the students and
Dr. Deepa Baruah, where key issues related to digital access, e-resource management, and
academic collaboration were discussed.
In addition to the library visit, the students were also taken on a comprehensive campus tour,
which included visits to the various academic disciplines, design workshops, and the Design

hands-on approach to design education practiced at NID Assam.
