What are the conditions for tourists to enter the Peking University Library?

To enter the Peking University Library, off-campus visitors need to meet specific conditions. First of all, you need to bring a valid identity certificate, such as your second-generation ID card or work permit, student ID card, and letter of introduction from your employer, to the general information desk in the lobby on the first floor of the east gate of the library to exchange for a "Peking University Library Temporary Reading Pass." This certificate allows access to materials in the reading room and designated areas within the specified time.

In the library, off-campus readers must abide by the library's book borrowing system when searching for books and periodicals or using databases, and may need to pay corresponding service fees. When reading, please be sure to take good care of the book. If it is damaged, you must compensate according to regulations. For inquiries about books and periodicals, copying materials or seeking answers, detailed information must be provided to facilitate search, and service fees and copying fees will be charged accordingly.

For senior professionals who have cooperative research projects with Peking University, or those who need to find intelligence materials, they can apply for a library card according to relevant procedures. However, all off-campus readers must strictly abide by the library rules and regulations. Violations will be dealt with according to the severity of the case, which may involve suspension or cancellation of borrowing privileges. Service fees paid will not be refunded.

Finally, off-campus personnel who want to visit the library must contact the librarian’s office in advance and obtain approval, and arrange the visit according to the designated time. In this way, the normal operation and order of the library can be ensured.
