Access to HKUST Library Facilities and Collections
Our mission is to meet the needs of current students, faculty, and staff at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. We provide information, resources, and access to researchers and interested parties in Hong Kong and beyond. Physical visits are welcomed throughout the year, subject to requirements and restrictions, while virtual visits are always available for resource information and digitized collections, where possible. The HKUST Library aims to expand access to our collections and be a sustainable partner to the global research community.
Individuals with research needs that require the use of HKUST Library materials but are not currently members of the HKUST community can apply for a Reader or Borrower Card for a fee.
