Vision
As a central player in the intellectual environment at the University of Hong Kong, the Libraries will be recognized on campus, regionally and internationally for its outstanding collections, client-centred services and innovative approaches that contribute to the teaching, learning, research and knowledge exchange pursuits of the University.
Mission
As the intellectual heart of the University, the University of Hong Kong Libraries shares with the University its aspiration to attain international distinction. To achieve this we build, preserve and facilitate access to resources required to support the full academic programme. We complement these resources with services that enable their discovery and application, and we provide diverse physical and virtual environments that support the teaching, learning, research, and knowledge exchange needs of our University. We do all of this: (i) to help prepare our students to be successful in their chosen careers and personal lives as well as to be responsible global citizens; and, (ii) to enable our University staff to contribute to the growth and development of our society.
