With effect from 1 Jan 2015, iBooking regulations will be amended as follows in order to maximize the use of Library resources. The amendments are subject to review and will be revised as needed.

1. Single loan quota for all bookable facilities
   With this single loan quota for all bookable facilities (incl. PCs, research carrels, group study rooms and database workstations), users can only book one facility type for use in the same time period. For instance, booking of a PC and a room for use at the same time will not be allowed.
