Welcome to a new academic semester! Whether you are new to HKU or looking to maximize your study experience, the Libraries are here to support you. Discover how to make the most of our resources and spaces with these 5 practical tips:
Get Started with First-Year Experience@HKUL
A must for first-year students! Our First-Year Experience@HKUL platform is specially designed to guide you through library essentials, services, and research tips. It’s your one-stop site for tailor-made support as you adjust to university life.
Stay ahead by mastering research skills! The Library Training Calendar provides a calendar of upcoming sessions. These workshops cover topics like information search, citation management, and subject-specific tools. Check the page regularly so you don’t miss valuable opportunities to boost your academic confidence.
Different tasks need different environments! Not sure where to study? Visit our Facilities & Services page to discover a variety of learning spaces, from group project rooms to solo study zones. Explore quiet corners, collaborative areas, and everything in between to find your perfect fit.
All your readings, all in one place! Use Find@HKUL as your gateway to search for books, articles, e-resources, and more—all across the library’s vast collection of databases and subscriptions. Save time and get reliable academic materials whenever you need them.
Make the most of what the library offers! Check out the Borrowing Privileges page to see how many items you can borrow, loan periods, renewals, and reservation processes. Besides resources subscribed by HKU Libraries, you can also request resources that are not available in HKU Libraries but are available from other UGC-funded libraries in Hong Kong or other institutions worldwide via Interlibrary Loan. Understanding your borrowing rights helps you plan and manage your resources efficiently.
Now you can explore more library services that will benefit your learning and research with the all-in-one house at liblrs.hku.hk!
Remember, the library is more than books and buildings, it’s your academic partner! If you have questions or need tailored guidance, don’t hesitate to ask our library staff. Let’s make this term a successful one, together!
