Happy February! 12-16 February 2024 marks the annual international event of Love Data Week.

The Exploration Lab portion of the maps exhibition closed on schedule, and the room has now been converted back into our Deep Quiet Room. Remember – no talking in this room, and we ask that if you need to use a keyboard you even try to type quietly. :-)   So if you need more quiet space, come here on the first floor, or go to the Quiet Floor on LG3.   Edward Spodick Associate Director of Library Services lbspodic@ust.hk  

I love bi-lingual puns! Today at the Idea Corner, I saw this witty commentary on yesterday's weather. This is a play on the Cantonese name for HKUST: 香港科技大學 香[heung1]港[gong2]科[fo1]技[gei6]大[daai6]學[hok6] 科[fo1]技[gei6] =  sounds like Foggy It made me chuckle. Today, it's still a bit foggy, but beautiful. Let's embrace the name :)                 Victoria Caplan Head (Research & Learning Support) lbcaplan@ust.hk
