Issue No. 63 (Feb 2021)
Ever thought about getting a lucky bag from the Library? In addition to a warm welcome back to the Spring Term from the Library staff, there will be a lucky draw during the first month of the Lunar year, from 16 Feb 2021 to 12 Mar 2021, and a lucky bag will be presented to the participants. What you need to do is just to visit the Help Station of the Stanley Ho Library on the Main Campus between 9 am and 7 pm, Monday to Friday, and draw your luck. Besides the gifts of lucky bags, we wish you all the blessings in this Lunar New Year! More promotional activities will be held in the coming months. Please watch out for the Library announcements and act fast, while stocks last!
Let's set your New Year goals and learn something new in the New Year of the Ox! To accompany you on your study journey, the Library has prepared a series of webinars on different topics.

No matter you are at home or on campus, don't miss the opportunity for self-enhancement!
