The study delves into the digital networking landscape within engineering college libraries in the Virudhunagar district. Given the limitations of individual library collections in meeting diverse information needs, library networking emerges as a crucial strategy. It aims to enhance resource sharing among libraries, thereby optimizing information services for users and leveraging national and international resources. Engineering college libraries serve as pivotal hubs for information acquisition and dissemination, supporting academic and research endeavors. Digital libraries represent a significant avenue for making educational and research materials accessible to faculty, researchers, students, and global audiences. They serve as repositories of institutional knowledge, enriching educational environments. The paper explores various facets of the networking environment, including network components, connectivity types, server utilization, and access point provisions within these libraries.
