UTS Library

In Night of 22th Feb, A middle Eastern staff are rude and overbearing when checking student cards.

The staff of the library were really friendly. Except for the one guy who was on the reception desk outside the library. I guess he was a security. But being in the reception of the desk he was not very helpful. I tried to explain why I was there for, but he would just get annoyed and was not speaking to me in a proper manner. But the guy, after I talked to was very nice to me. And later, when I left the place, that guy was immediately on his phone smiling at i dont know what. It was so disheartening how he presented himself being at the reception of the library.

Good but couldn't renew my long-life membership alumni card. Nor I know where or how. I like better the old library: ancient & majestic. Reception at the entry & easy to get thinks done.The new generation may be they don't share my opinion. They like building made of glasses, ceiling of ugly foil & everything is commercial & not durable.Everything seems to be done online. No staff, no reception desk, no inquiry desk like before. No one to guide you either. Tech. Era has messed our lives in many aspects & left us disoriented to the point to desire the afterlife. Everything is comlicated, no one to talk to you or to guide you. it is getting worse.God help us!

UTS Library is great place to get knowledge about everything

Amazing facilities on Level 7,8 &9 of the glass building 2

Quiet space for study. I recommend the upper levels as there is more seating available in those spaces.

For UTS students only, this part of the UTS campus has changed to its current location in Building 2, which at this time is one of the newest buildings on the campus.The old location in Haymarket had a lot going for it with its circular stairwell and many study spaces, but the advantage of Building 2 is the abundant light and views from the curved glass walls - it literally opens the space up with light and that is great for the soul, and a welcome distraction for when study gets too intense.It still has multiple floors of great library book and journal resources, study spaces and even chill spaces (not sure if it still has board game spaces? Surely). It opened during covid times so not sure of the traffic. It overlooks the UTS green so it does feel expansive.There is a facility where you can borrow a library laptop from the dock they have which is pretty cool. There are PC computers and some Macs still, but there are also spaces for people who bring their own laptops which is more common these days.They have a reserve vault for any books you want that are not commonly borrowed, and these you can raise a request.The only quirk is that you have to go several floors up to get into the library, then go down again for some floors. Why not have the entrance on the lowest floor? I’m not sure why, but hopefully there’s a good reason for that (security?) - but really it’s not a big issue.This is a beautiful study hub in a classy architectural structure and any UTS student is really privileged to be able to access it.

Cozy and comfort place to study with a beautiful views around it

I'm graduated, but treated as outside students as well. Is it possible to allow alumni students use computers as well(only for common area)? Because most of time, they are vacant. I notice on the alumni website, uts provides uts library database access to all alumnis, come on, who need it?Or, give alumni students access to the library on weekends as well(only common area). Otherwise, what's the difference between guests and alumnis?Everytime I've been asked for ID and kick me out make me sick. That's the way you treat your alumni? Please conside of my advice, even allow to access the library on weekends for alumnis would be a great help.

Honestly, I haven’t been there, but I gave you a five star because when I gave a call to this library just 2 minutes ago, the lady who was talking to me was so nice and she tried to help me a lot to give me very useful information. It was quite nice to talk to that person. God bless you all for helping people even if they are not a student there like me
