Currently, four branches of Nanshan Study, including Pingyuan Xuan, Tingyun Xuan, Xunfeng Ge, and Xiangqun Xuan, have been put into operation and several more are under planning and construction.

The 24-hour self-service smart studies aim to create diverse cultural spaces that can fulfill different readers' varied reading preferences. Recognized as an excellent case of public cultural services in Guangdong Province, the project pioneers an individualized, intelligent, and interactive reading model, effectively enhancing the accessibility of cultural facilities to the public.

In 2023, the four studies received over 520,000 visits and more than 860,000 reservations, with each reader staying for over 2 hours on average, according to the Nanshan Library.
