The Quiet Zone & PC Area on G/F of the MMW Library aims to offer students a “mini library” of key resources and facilities which they can use around the clock. To enhance its suitability for late night study, the Centre and its surrounding area will also be brightly lit, equipped with security cameras and will also include a security guard to be stationed at the entrance when the library is closed. The Centre will be accessible at all times via the main entrance of the MMW Library.
