Campus Announcements

To provide faculty and students with a better interface for searching and using library resources, the library decided to adapt a new cloud-based Library Service Platform (LSP). The LSP integrates cloud computing and AI functionalities, offering a one-stop solution for searching both physical and electronic library resources, thereby more effectively supporting teaching and research.

The LSP will officially go live on Thursday, January 1, 2026. During the system transition period, the original web-based OPAC and EasySearch (Electronic Resources Discovery Services) will remain unaffected. However, some services and functions will be temporarily suspended in sequence, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
