Additional Self-checkout station on P/F
To streamline the overall loan and return services, with effect from 4 Jan 2021, users can borrow and return both books and audio-visual (AV) items at the Loan and Return Counter on the Library Podium Floor. The Multimedia Commons Counter on 3/F was closed on the same day. Users can still get access to the AV collections in their existing locations in Multimedia Commons on 3/F. To enable users to conveniently check out AV items and books before they leave the Library, an additional self-checkout station has been relocated from Multimedia Commons to the area near the Library Exit.
