Research: Library of Congress Adds Pre-1958 Chinese Collection Records Now Fully Searchable via LC OPAC
From The Library of Congress Blog:
The contents of the Asian Division’s Pre-1958 Chinese Collection, totaling more than 40,000 items, are now fully searchable through the Library’s online catalog in both Chinese characters and Romanized script. This rich and diverse collection has served researchers and general audiences for nearly 90 years; until now, however, bibliographic records for these materials were only available through a card catalog.
