| library |
I really have to tell everyone this.
Although HK's standard of living is about the same as Singapore but there is something abt CityU that is soo different from SMU. Its the library!
Lets see..
1) Students can borrow up to 20 books at a time for a period of 30 days. 20 books! my gosh.. i know some people that will be soo happy
2) Semi-closed, closed access materials (like our course reserves), up to 5 items can be borrowed at a time. Some for 5 hours, some for a day. Need I say more.. no need to rush to copy the relevant parts and return it
3) Opening hours are till 2300, during examination period its 0100.
4) Photocopy is only at HK$0.03 per page. This is less than S$0.01. Less than a cent! where to find!
5) Full of tables, cubicles, computers. Lots of space for everyone
6) Full of books that i like. Okies, perhaps books like Stalin, C.S Lewis, Japanese culture, Jews etc etc will not interest alot of people. Besides, all the trashy romantic novels, heart-warming stories, fantasy books that i am always reading, I love books about culture, religion and people! Nah, not a big fan of language books cos i simply sux. See my standard of Chinese and Thai progress and u'll understand why.
7) Lots of interesting DVDs and VCDs. Lets see...it ranges from Casablanca to Last Samurai, Old cantonese opera to Sex & City. Recently, i borrowed Almost Famous but did not get a chance to watch as I was rather busy.
Not sure about SMU's new library but I was pretty impress with City U Libray. Am i going to the library often.......... sadly... NO!
Okies, I will try to go there more.. no harm being hardworking rite. |
