Enhanced COVID-19 Control Measures for All Library Visitors
All visitors to HKBU campuses must comply with the University’s vaccination requirements. For details, please refer to the latest announcements of the University. For avoidance of doubt, these requirements apply to all library card holders (including Graduate Borrower Card and JULAC Card holders).
The Library’s service arrangements, including opening and counter service hours, are subject to change in response to the development of the pandemic in Hong Kong. Please check the latest announcements on the Library website before visiting the Library.
External users and corporations may apply for a Library borrower card.
Applications should be made in the form of a letter detailing the genuine research need of the user/corporation to use the resources of HKBU Library. This should be sent to the User Services team by e-mail (libcir@hkbu.edu.hk) or by fax (3411-7372).
