They have consistently been extremely helpful.
The 看片视频 Library provides a vast array of additional access points to teaching and learning content and research materials, including over 50,000 e-journal titles and 2 million e-books. Links directly to instructor defined readings can be easily聽included in myCourses as the primary source for student reading materials.聽Liaison librarians in each branch library can provide further assistance.
