Abstract

This study investigates the recent green development in the main library of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and the construction of the library's new wing and the students' opinions on its green development. This study adopted a qualitative research method to collect information from 10 users about the green features implemented and their influence. Another interview with the campus development office project manager responsible for the library facilities was also included to explore the current and potential future green practices. These methods aim to evaluate the green development in an academic library from three perspectives, including (1) the library's role in green development in terms of library facilities, (2) users' demand relating to greening the library, and (3) the influence caused by the greening activities of the library.
