Abstract:

It has become a new trend for university library to provide all-round support for student’s well-being. The research shows that space, as one of the library’s advantageous resources, has not been fully utilized to support student’s well-being. This paper introduces the concept of “healing space”, and puts forward that the healthy space of university library should support the all-round healthy development of students’ physiology, psychology and social adaptability. Based on the theory of Environmental Psychology, this paper discusses how to systematically construct the healing space of university library, and finally demonstrates the strategy of building the healing space based on the theory of Environmental Psychology through an example of the space construction of Zhejiang University of Technology Library.
