About the library

The Central Library of Chandpur Science and Technology University supports the teaching, learning and research of all students, teachers, officers and staff. The full catalogue is online, so you can search the collection, see your loans, renew books and place reservations from anywhere.

Your library account

1. Every CSTU student, teacher, officer and staff member can become a member. Your library card number is your Student ID (or Employee ID for staff).
2. When your account is created you receive a welcome email. To set your password the first time, open library.cstu.ac.bd/forgot and enter your ID or email address.
3. Then log in with your ID and password to see your loans, due dates and fines, renew books and reserve books.

You will get email reminders before a book is due, on the due date, and if it becomes overdue. Please keep your email address up to date with the library.
