With Octopus payment now accepted on all Library printers and copiers, the Library has decided to gradually phase out the Flexicard service and will terminate the support for Flexicards after 30 Jun 2016 in order to save the cost of maintaining the service. New Flexicards are no longer available for sale in the Library. Payments by Flexicards are still accepted in some Library printers until 30 Jun 2016.
Four new Group Study Rooms in G/F Discussion Zone 1 are now available for use.
