[Purpose/significance] This paper aims at investigating effective ways of applying social media to university library virtual learning commons (VLC), so as to boost the fast development of VLC, and practice the transformation of service idea of libraries from "information resources-centered" to "learner-centered".[Method/process] This paper designed a mechanism that employs QQ, WeChat and other online communication technologies enjoyed and well used by university students as tools and took the "student service team", the theme——driven factor, multi-collaboration, and the user-centered evaluation as key routes to construct, organize and manage the VLC. It also applied this mechanism to an automobile-theme-driven VLC.[Result/conclusion] The empirical research and user-centered evaluation show that it is useful for current university students to learn individually by VLCs that take social media as tools; optimizing the "student service team" is a key factor for VLC's effective operation; the theme-driven factor and multi-collaboration promote the attraction and implication of VLCs, so that university students' learning outcome is significant and they participate enthusiastically.
