3D Printing at Library
Learning Commons : opens on Sundays
As the Library enters Summer Break hours, the Learning Commons opens on Sundays from 10am to 7pm with card access control. Use your HKUST card to enter the LC on LG1.
If your card supports “contactless” operation, simply place the card on top of the reader to enter.
Nasty Mess Left in Study Room
This week, the Library was able to extend the overnight study space to include all of LG1. The plan is to try this out for the study and exam weeks to reduce the pressure on the existing 24-hour LC space. We are able to do so through a lot of work and planning by Library staff, and with the help of University administration and support from FMO.
Sadly, some students abused this change, and they made a big mess in one of the Media Viewing rooms.
The Media and Microforms area on LG1 is now open 24-hour until May 29. Other floors close according to Library Hours
Card Access at ALL time from March 25
Starting March 25, you need your HKUST card to enter LC all the time. Please bring your cards.

Furniture Samples Available For Comment
We need your comments on some furniture samples for the 1/F and LG1 renovations!
Please visit the furniture samples area on LG1 behind the Media Counter, and write your comments on the posted sheets of paper.
So far, we have several low and high chairs for you to evaluate. More furniture samples will be coming in a week or so, including a table or two.
Renovations Coming Soon to 1/F and LG1!
All of 1/F, and part of LG1 will undergo some renovation during the next couple months.
We will work with the contractors to reduce the disturbance, especially as the exam period approaches.
Please be understanding as we work to improve the Library’s study environments.
