Textbook Service

Textbook Service allows the NCHU faculty to submit textbook requests to the Library. It aims to work with instructors to make assigned textbooks available to students. Patrons can refer to the textbook lists through the Library’s website as well. To ensure that course resources are as accessible as possible, the designated textbooks can only be checked out for a short loan period. Print books can be borrowed for 14 days and multimedia items offer a 5-day loan. Renewals are not permitted.

Taichung’s Geography and Climate

Taichung City is located in the heart of Taiwan and serves as an important hub of transportation for people traveling between the northern and southern parts of the island. The weather here is mostly sunny throughout the year. With an average temperature of 23.3 °C (73.9 °F), it has been named Taiwan’s most livable city. July–August are the warmest months and January–February are the coolest. During daytime, the temperature is always warm (and sometimes hot), even in the winter. However, at night in winter, temperatures can drop significantly.

Safety (Smoking/Drinking Laws and Scams)

The minimum legal age for drinking is 18 and smoking is 20 in Taiwan, and driving under the influence of alcohol is strictly prohibited by law. Furthermore, cigarettes and alcoholic beverages are prohibited throughout NCHU.Many international students have fallen victim to scam calls, which are prevalent in Taiwan. As a reminder, do not provide any personal information such as your bank account number, online banking login credentials, date of birth, and even the romanized spelling of your name, as such information can be used to gain control of your bank account. When you receive a call from an unknown caller who claims to be a government, telecom, or bank employee, do not answer any questions or listen to their orders. Your best course of action is to hang up immediately, or ask for their number and report it to the 165 Antifraud Hotline (reachable by cellphones) to see if it is indeed a scam call.
