Yes. Although the NSTU Central Library primarily serves students, faculty, and staff, it also provides conditional public access. School children, visiting researchers, and community members seeking rare or specialized books may formally request permission to use library resources under supervision. These controlled access opportunities support broader educational needs while maintaining the integrity, security, and priority use of library resources for the university community.
Yes, NSTU prioritizes sustainable land use in campus development planning. Wherever feasible, the University selects brownfield sites—areas with existing or recent construction—for new buildings and infrastructure projects. This approach minimizes encroachment on greenfield areas, preserves natural landscapes, and reduces environmental impact associated with expansion. By integrating new construction into previously developed sites, NSTU ensures responsible campus growth while maintaining ecological balance and protecting open green spaces.
