Access to HKUST Library Facilities and Collections
Our mission focuses on meeting the needs of current students, faculty, and staff of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. We also work to provide information, resources, and access to researchers and other interested parties in Hong Kong and beyond. Physical visits are entertained throughout the year, subject to various requirements and restrictions. Virtual visits are always available to resource information – and in many cases to digitized versions of our physical collections where possible under licensing and copyright. The HKUST Library endeavors to expand access our information and collections and to be a sustainable partner to the global research community.
Visiting HKUST Library
Our primary aim is to support students and staff of HKUST, but we also provide open access during break time and support non-HKUST users with genuine academic research needs.
