The Library welcomes collaboration with faculty members in organizing tailor-made workshops and creating specific learning materials on information skills for courses.

Faculties and librarians can work together to deliver librarian-in-class sessions and design content-focused workshops for the needs of courses. The creation of subject-related learning materials can help students acquire skills to formulate search strategies, make effective use of a variety of resources and citation management tools.

Faculties are most welcome to email us (library@hsu.edu.hk) or call 3963-5310 for an initial discussion.

With the support of different parties in the University, various activities successfully took place in the Library. An online portal is developed to preserve records of these memorable events and exhibits.

We are proudly presenting to you our newly launched Events & Exhibits (Phase I) on the Library webpage. From now on, you can revisit not-to-miss events in a digital manner anytime anywhere.

Beautiful pouches were made by students at the Omamori DIY Workshop held in the Library!

The pouches are a type of Japanese amulet that protect their owners from bad luck and evil spirits. It was a wonderful workshop for participants to share a unique cultural experience of artifact creation.

Organized by the Japanese Culture Society and the Art Society, the Workshop was held at the DIY Corner of the Library on 24 May 2021. If you also want to co-organize any activities with the Library, please feel free to contact us at library@hsu.edu.hk.

Students from the course AD1101 offered by the Department of Art and Design are excited to showcase their coursework masterpieces in this end-of-term student work Exhibition.

Under the guidance of Mr Chan Kei Him, students have used different media and tools to create a wide diversity of art makings, such as drawings, watercolor and poster colour paintings, printmaking, paper reliefs and more.

Please come visit the Exhibition and appreciate the students’ craftsmanship!
