The Library is pleased to share the following updates with you.
One-Stop Service Point
Starting 21 Dec 2024 (Sat), we will have a centralized service point at the G/F Service Counter. This means you can handle all your library needs at one location, including:
- Borrowing regular items
- Getting External Reader Cards
- Collecting Alumni Reader or Borrower Cards
- Picking up interlibrary loans
- Borrowing iPads and laptops
- Checking out Course Reserve materials
- Lost & found services
Meanwhile, to better align with users’ preferred practices, we are going cashless. The Library will only accept Octopus payments at the counter as we transition to a cashless system. We are also working on introducing additional mobile payment options, which will be available next year.
Course Reserve Materials
From 23 Dec 2024 (Mon), you can find high-demand course readings in the closed stack Course Reserve on the G/F. You can borrow these materials for three hours and use them outside the Library. Here’s how to access them:
- Go to the “Course Resources” tab on the Library homepage.
- Look for items’ location marked “Course Reserve G/F”.
- Note down the call number and title of the items you want.
- Visit the G/F Service Counter and provide this information to the staff.
- The staff will retrieve the items and check them out for you.
Thank you for your understanding and continuous support of the Library!
