LIBRARY HIGHLIGHTS
"Endless Journey, Awaits Reunion" - A Recap of the Library's Graduation Season Series
The XJTLU Library held the Graduation Season series activities from July 17th to 21st at both SIP and Taicang campuses. Graduating students participated in various activities to create lasting memories. They took commemorative photos at designated spots and received special mementos from the library. A BookCrossing Corner at the SIP campus allowed students to donate books, passing on heartfelt gestures to juniors. Emotions were shared on the message board, making the farewell more meaningful. Additionally, the library prepared a thoughtful graduation booklist for departing students, wishing them the joy of reading on their future journeys. The overwhelming response showcased the strong connection between students and the XJTLU library, creating a vibrant cultural atmosphere on campus.
