  What do TA people do in the museum?

  Answer 1: Of course, going to the library means reading, borrowing and returning books.

  People who love books+good books+good environment, full of reading atmosphere!

  Answer 2: Watch exhibitions, interact and listen to lectures.

  Since its opening, Xujiahui Academy has integrated high-quality social resources such as bookstores, universities, cultural and art venues, art troupes, and cultural tourism outlets, and based on the new reading needs of "leisure, interaction, and knowledge", organized exhibitions, lectures, and stillness in a three-dimensional way, with major festivals, anniversaries, and World Book Day as nodes, through the combination of inside and outside the library, online and offline, graphic and live broadcast, and dynamic and static.

  As of June 30, 2023, the College has held 48 reading promotion activities, with 6,683 participants and 13,894,173 online participants.

  During the World Reading Day on April 23rd, the Academy launched, with three-dimensional exhibition and supporting theme bookshelves, to commemorate Xu Guangqi, the pioneer of science, and to pay tribute to China's pursuit of light and brilliant achievements.

  The third floor of the academy will be launched after the opening of the exhibition. Don't miss it. As of June 30, 2023, the total number of visitors to the exhibition has exceeded 500,000.

  Answer 3: punch in, take photos, and stroll around.

  It doesn't matter. Hanging out is welcome.

  Fang Yunfang, director of Xuhui District Library, said, "This is not only a library, but also a cultural landmark, which not only collects books, but also has a wider educational communication function. "

  Considering the cultural landmark function of the academy, the layout of the academy has broken through the conventional "going straight to the bookshelf to find books", even without the moving rhythm of "preface hall" and "main title" which are common in general exhibitions. Instead, it guides readers to find interesting books and knowledge fields through "wandering", and even readers who punch in and take pictures can naturally get close to books.

  There are many good books with clever layout, and there is always one that you can't put down.

  In addition, many wonderful activities will be broadcast live simultaneously on the big screen on the first floor, which will enhance the readers' experience. In the academy, you can come across a wonderful TED talk or stop to listen to a string quartet.

  Answer 4: Enjoy tea, drink coffee and buy wenchuang.

  The fragrance of tea and coffee always complements the fragrance of books, and a cup of fragrance after wandering in the sea of books sublimates the "poetic dwelling" in this library. The exquisite cultural creation of B1 East-West Park makes people's love for reading concrete.

  At present, Dongxi Park has received a total of 247,119 visitors, and 14 out of every 100 readers have made cultural consumption, including 36,664 pieces of cultural and creative goods and 139,037 pieces of coffee, tea and ice cream.

  "I didn't expect the library to be so good!" It is the voice of many readers.
