Harvard College Library and National Library of China Embark on Digitization Project

Academics, students and other Sinophiles will be interested to know that Harvard College Library and the National Library of China will soon be embarking on a new cooperative project : the digitization of the 51,500 rare Chinese books housed at the Harvard-Yenching Library. The Harvard-Yenching Library is home to one of the largest collections of rare Chinese books outside of China and the digitization project is expected to last 6 years.
