Brief History of the Library

UEAB Library was officially opened on 14th June 1992 by Elder Bekere Heye, the first Chancellor of the University. The mandate of the library is to serve the needs of the UEAB community. To date the library provides access to print books and print journals. With the advent of technology, UEAB incorporated the provision of e‑resources to its collection. In addition, UEAB Library is a depository of Seventh‑day Adventists publications. The immense wealth of academic resources available in the library is a great boost to UEAB academic excellence.
