Library as a Bridge: Tailored Communication Campaign Library
In order to strengthen the communication with faculty and postgraduate students, librarians from XJTLU Library are reaching out to different schools and academies to provide more profound Library services through the "Library as a Bridge" event, keeping them up-to-date on Library resources and services according to their needs.
In March, the librarians visited the School of Advanced Technology, Design School, Academy of Future Education, School of Science, and School of Mathematics and Physics, setting up information desks to display and circulate Library guides on databases, Library workshops, book borrowing, intellectual property information service, etc. At the same time, librarians at the information desk communicated with students and staff to offer consultation services.
In the future, the XJTLU Library will visit more academies and schools, hoping that the librarians will act as a communication bridge to provide professional subject service for faculty and students.

Library Events Recap: “Read More Books to Plant Your Dream” Book Borrowing Activity
In order to promote a culture of reading and support the construction of spiritual civilization on campus, the XJTLU Library launched a reading promotion activity entitled "Read More Books to Plant Your Dream" at both SIP and Taicang campuses from March 13th to March 17th. During the event, more than 80 readers who borrowed five or more books from the library service desk at either campus were rewarded with a small potted plant as encouragement, which not only promotes communication and interaction among readers but also creates a strong cultural atmosphere on our campus.
