To provide our staff and students with additional space for your overnight study after Library has closed, the Library is pleased to announce the extension of the overnight access area with a new computer room connected to the Late Reading Room. Public PCs, iMacs, Library-Use-Only Database Workstations, and Special Educational Needs (SEN) equipment are provided to meet the learning needs of students. Colour and B&W Multi-Function Printer (MFP) are available for printing, copying and scanning.

In addition, 14 Postgraduate Research Carrels are designated to meet the research needs of postgraduate students. Eligible users (Research Postgraduates, Taught Postgraduates and Staff) can book the carrels through the Rooms / Facilities Booking System and use them up to 30 minutes before the Library closes. This service is launched as a pilot run. We will closely monitor it according to users' needs.

Please be reminded that

• Only current Lingnan staff and students are eligible to use the Late Reading Room and the 2 Computer Rooms after the Library closes. 
• Eligible users can use the Entrance on 1/F for entering and leaving the Late Reading Room.
