  ABSTRACT: Taking the Library of Hubei University of Technology as an example, this paper deeply analyzes its reading promotion activities based on the “Third Space” theory. The study finds that through creating a comfortable reading space, holding diverse reading activities, and strengthening interaction and cooperation with readers, the Library of Hubei University of Technology has successfully increased readers’ participation and satisfaction, and created a strong campus reading atmosphere. However, there are still deficiencies in publicity efforts, resource limitations, and sustainability. This paper proposes optimization strategies such as strengthening publicity, expanding resources, and establishing a long-term mechanism, hoping to provide a reference for the reading promotion activities of other university libraries.
