The library in Ningbo University Park has developed the concept of traditional library, which is the unity of multiple connotations and a bold attempt to develop university libraries in recent years. Ningbo University Park Library is not only the unity of public library and university library, but also the unity of digital library and traditional library.
The library of Ningbo University Park does not set up a separate computer room, but distributes computers evenly in each reading area.
In terms of hardware, Yan Wulin, the first curator, made a lot of modifications and innovations to the library layout, canceled the original dense stacks and non-open-shelf reading areas, and realized full-shelf reading; Open all the walls between departments to realize a fully open structure; Do not set up a separate computer room, but distribute computers evenly in each reading area; Sofas are set in each reading area to provide readers with a more comfortable reading environment. The library is equipped with a 3M self-service borrowing instrument, and readers can borrow books by themselves when the staff on duty is absent. Change the original paper library card into a non-contact IC card, and manage many services such as borrowing books, copying and surfing the internet through the "one-card".

Colin campbell, president of Nottingham University, called it a "world-class library".
Positioning function
Comfortable environment and free service are important reasons to attract readers. Due to the establishment of children's reading area and children's activity center, some surrounding residents send their children to the library of Ningbo University Park before going to work and then take them home after work. This phenomenon is especially obvious in winter vacation and summer vacation.
In fact, the library of Ningbo University Park is attached with the function of students' social practice base. Taking the social practice activities of Xiaoshi Middle School in the summer of 2005 as an example, 4.28% of freshmen's social practice places are Ningbo University Park Library.

lack
Although Ningbo University Park Library is the best library in Ningbo so far, there are still some defects and deficiencies.
Ningbo University Park Library is a newly-built library in 2003, with limited funds and a small number of traditional paper printed books. At present, the number of traditional paper printed books is increasing at a rate of about 654.38+10,000 copies per year.
The library of Ningbo University Park is geographically remote, far from the center of Ningbo, so it is inconvenient for readers living in the urban area to go there. Most city readers go by private car, bring their own food, and usually stay in the library all day.
The problem of museum name
Names of existing and used museums
There are many names of libraries in Ningbo University Park, which are easy to be confused. Currently used in formal occasions are:
"Ningbo University Park Library"
"Ningbo Second Library"
"Ningbo Yinzhou District Library"
The names of museums that have been used but are basically not used now are:
"Ningbo Higher Education Park Library and Information Center" (formerly named)
"Ningbo University Park Book Information Center" (currently written at the entrance of Xiao Zhuan)
"Ningbo Higher Education Park Library"
"Ningbo Library (Higher Education Park)" (this name has never been used publicly, but only appears in the documents issued by Ningbo Municipal Government)
People often confuse Ningbo University Park Library with Ningbo University Library. Ningbo University Park Library is a public library in Ningbo, which is open to students and citizens in the city. Ningbo University Library, the university library of Ningbo University, is only open to students.
The origin of ambiguity
Ningbo University Park Library is directly under Ningbo Education Bureau. Formerly known as "Ningbo Higher Education Park Library and Information Center", it was renamed as "Ningbo Higher Education Park Library" at the suggestion of the first curator Yan Wulin.
When Li Lanqing visited Ningbo Higher Education Park again in 2002, local leaders invited Li Lanqing to write an inscription for Ningbo Higher Education Park. Li Lanqing mistakenly wrote "Ningbo Higher Education Park" as "Ningbo University Park", and later "Ningbo Higher Education Park" was renamed "Ningbo University Park". Ningbo Higher Education Park Library was immediately renamed as "Ningbo University Park Library", which has been in use ever since.
avoid ambiguity
In order to eliminate ambiguity, people usually avoid using the name "Ningbo University Park Library" and often use "University Park Library" or "Higher Education Park Library". Recently, some people began to use the abbreviation "Ertu".
