As there is more and more research devoted to Learner Autonomy,Self-access Center which is closely related to the concept has also attracted increasing attention in the field of linguistics both at home and abroad. Numerous Self-access Centers have been established in different countries and regions,and at the same time substantial theoretical and empirical research has been conducted on the establishment,development and evaluation of these centers. The present paper reviews this field in terms of the research contents and features. Some implications for future exploration are presented as well.
