The fifth law of library and information science, "Library is a growing organism," emphasises the importance of managing an organization's administrative processes in light of the ever-increasing amount of information. Because of the information explosion, the library environment is changing quickly. LIS experts are working hard to develop and apply new strategies in the area to avoid situations like this one where confusion reigns. The way that people utilise libraries to obtain knowledge is impacted by advances in science and technology. As a result, LIS professionals constantly use ICT tools to expand their skills and gather a variety of electronic resources and digital documents for ready, accurate, well-researched information. Since there are many different types of Digital and Electronic resources available, LIS professionals should gather the ones that are relevant to their organisation and useful for management. LIS professionals encounter challenges in gathering and organising information due to the prevalence of ICT-based resources in the market. Libraries now days are always attempting to obtain Digital and Electronic resources from diverse fields through a variety of consortiums. However, the challenge is in obtaining appropriate resources at a lower cost. This study provides a quick overview of the current state of ICT applications and administration in College libraries of Assam.
