A Great Success
The Library E-Discovery Week concluded with a great success. Over 150 staff and students took part in the twelve E-Resources Training Workshops. The E-Discovery Challenge on February 22-23 attracted over 600 participants to take the quizzes and visit our exhibition booths. All valid quiz submissions were entered into a Big Lucky Draw. Participants found the E-Discovery Week activities engaging and useful.
A prize presentation ceremony was held on March 8 at the Library Gallery. Our Lucky Draw winners received the prizes from Ms. Diana Chan, University Librarian.
