New Asia College Ch’ien Mu Library Refurbishment Project (9th May – 31st August 2015)


New Asia College Ch’ien Mu Library (NAL) is short of study and collection space. In recent library surveys users have been requesting more study space. The book shelves are already full and the library has no space for collection growth. Given this challenging situation, during the summer the Library is refurbishing NAL to provide a new learning cluster with more study space on the ground floor, more shelving space for collection growth and a new RFID self-issue and return service. NAL specializes in Chinese language and literature, fine arts and philosophy, all subject areas where print collection growth is still strong. To accommodate future growth and after consultation with students, faculty and the Colleges the Library will relocate the philosophy collection to the United College Wu Chung Multimedia Library (UCL) also on the upper-campus. This is the first phase of a longer term renovation of UCL being planned and consulted upon.

1. Refurbishment Project

The refurbishment project will be taken place from 9th May – 31st August 2015. A more spacious learning cluster with more than 60 seats will be provided on the ground floor. Compact shelves will be installed on the second floor so that all fine arts titles can be put together on one floor and additional shelving will be created for the existing collection. Below is the conceptual design of the learning cluster and the external view of NAL after the renovation. The furniture and color scheme are still being finalised. At the same time the external walls of NAL will be painted.

2.  Philosophy Collection Relocation 9th May – 16th May 2015

To allow for future collection growth, the philosophy collection currently located on first floor in NAL will be relocated to UCL from 9th May 2015 and will be made available for users as soon as possible. The target date for completing the relocation is 16th May 2015.

3. Using NAL during the renovation period  

During the renovation period, the Ground Floor and Second Floor of NAL will be closed for building work. There will be a temporary entrance located on LG/F next to the Late Reading Room which will lead to the first floor only (Location Map). We strongly recommend that you minimize your visits to NAL during the project as there will be noisy work throughout the project.

4. Retrieval Service for Books

All books and periodicals originally located on ground and second floor will not be directly accessible during the project. These materials will be temporarily marked as “NA temp close stack” in the Library catalogue. Users are welcome to request these materials following the  hold procedure. The requested materials can then be checked out through the circulation counter at the temporary entrance in NAL. (Location Map)

5. Progress Updates

For updates on the refurbishment project and the collection relocation please see our NAL Blog and follow us on Twitter at @nalibblog.

新亞書院錢穆圖書館翻新計劃(二零一五年五月九日至八月三十一日)

新亞書院錢穆圖書館(以下簡稱新亞圖書館)的學習及藏書空間現已不敷應用。讀者也在近年的圖書館問卷調查中持續提出增加學習空間的需求。再加上新亞圖書館的書庫已達飽和,無法應付館藏增長。為積極回應目前的挑戰,新亞圖書館將於今年暑假進行翻新工程,在地下新設一個學習空間以提供更多坐位之餘,將同時增加更多藏書空間,以及推出RFID(無線射頻辨識)自助借還服務。由於新亞圖書館的館藏以中國語言及文學、藝術和哲學為主,紙本館藏未來仍會持續增長。為了應付日後增加的館藏,經咨詢學生、學系和書院後,新亞圖書館將遷移哲學類藏書至同樣位於上校區的聯合書院胡忠多媒體圖書館(以下簡稱聯合圖書館)。這是聯合圖書館長遠翻新計劃中已完成咨詢的首階段工作。

1.  翻新計劃

翻新計劃將於二零一五年五月九日至八月三十一日進行。新亞書院圖書館地下將增設一個寬敞的學習空間,額外提供逾六十個座位。二樓將會安裝密集書架,收藏所有藝術類藏書,以及提供未來館藏發展的空間。以下圖片展示學習空間之設計概念及圖書館裝修後之外貌,而圖書館傢俱及用色仍有待議定。此外,圖書館外牆將同時進行翻新。

2. 哲學類藏書將於二零一五年五月九日至十六日遷移

為應付館藏持續增長,由二零一五年五月九日起,原本位於新亞圖書館一樓之哲學類藏書將遷移至聯合圖書館,並預期於二零一五年五月十六日恢復服務。

3. 翻新期間新亞書院圖書館服務

工程期間,圖書館將會關閉地下及二樓,並於夜讀室旁設置臨時出入口 (位置圖),供讀者進出一樓。由於噪音關係,讀者應避免在施工期間到訪新亞書院圖書館。

4. 取書服務

工程期間,位於地下及二樓之書刊均未能提供直接取用服務。這些書刊在圖書館目錄上之狀態將暫時顯示為 “NA temp closed stack”。讀者只需按一般的線上預約程序進行預約,並於本館臨時出入口所設之流通處借取有關資料。(位置圖)

5.工程進度更新

圖書館翻新工程及館藏遷移工作進度訊息,將於新亞圖書館網誌及Twitter (@nalibblog) 發放。
