疫情下的大學展覽廳
The University Gallery during the COVID-19 Pandemic

受到新冠肺炎疫情影響,2020年初至今,大學展覽廳的開放模式也因而有所改變。為控制人流,確保社交距離,訪客均需預約參觀。為提供更清潔及安全的環境,參觀人士在登記參觀時,需要申報過去十四的健康狀況;進入展覽廳時均需量度體溫;展廳大門備有消毒地墊,不同位置設有消毒搓手液機,供參觀者使用。此外,所有互動展品均定時消毒;展覽範圍均應用抗病毒塗層,提供長效消毒和抗菌保護,保障參觀者健康。

大學展覽廳也藉著這段時期,更新部份展出內容,包括之前介紹的新展品1964年的賀函,還有展區D介紹大學近年主要研究計劃的輕觸式屏幕互動內容、諾貝爾學人精選講座重溫宣傳片等。除展品内容更新外,展廳硬件也進行提升工程,如改善展櫃燈光,使展品得到更佳保護;地下一層墻壁展櫃翻新及地板改善工程,以防雨水滲入造成蟲蛀問題。這些維護工程都為參觀者提供更好的體驗。

大學檔案繼續向各部門徵集歷史文獻,同時也推出1963-2019年校園地圖數碼館藏,並因應疫情對校園生活的影響,推出中大抗疫記事徵集,計劃藉此記錄中大人在對抗新型冠狀病毒期間的經歷,建構校園抗疫的集體記憶。期望各位老師、學生、職員和校友分享這段期間的照片、文字等,記錄在這段期間的體驗或校園生活受到的影響。

走過充滿挑戰的2020年,2021即將到臨,祝願大家來年身心康泰、生活充實!

Since the outbreak of the Coronavirus in January, the University Gallery has imposed preventive measures to ensure safety of visitors. In order to maintain social distancing, Gallery visits are by appointment only. All visitors are required to declare their health status for the past 14 days. Visitors entering the gallery are subject to body temperature check. Disinfection floor mat is placed at the entrance and hand sanitizer is provided at different areas inside the Gallery. Regular cleaning is applied to all interactive touch panels. Spray of anti-microbial coating is arranged to prevent microbial contamination and provide long-lasting protection.

Some display items have been replaced and new contents are added during this period. These included update of University outstanding research projects on the touch screen display, video clips of the "Revisiting the Nobel Laureates Lectures" series, and "Congratulatory Messages of 1964" which is introduced in our October blog post. In addition to new contents, there are also refurbishment works to maintain a suitable environment for exhibits and to enhance visitors' experience, such as replacement of lighting of display cabinets and installment of new wall display cases and flooring on the LG/F.

In addition to collecting historical files from different units, the University Archives has also scanned and turned campus maps of 1963-2009 into digital format. As mentioned in August blog post, they are available at the University Archives Digital Collection. Facing the pandemic, a campus-wide project "Contribute to COVID-19 CUHK Community Archive" is launched. The project encourages CUHK students, faculty, staff and alumni to document their personal experiences during the COVID-19 outbreak and contribute them to the University Archives for future study or research.

2020 has been a very challenging year for everyone. 2021 is fast approaching. Wish you good health and prosperity in the new year!
