> Query regarding costs of building a new library collection on China
> ************************************************************************
> From: Frank Conlon
>
> I have had a query from a friend and colleague who is contemplating
> joining a new university where Chinese history has not been regularly
> taught. Its library has just a handful of English-language books for
> teaching purposes. The instructional program that is contemplated would
> focus primarily on a couple of theimperial dynasties and,in due course,
> the modern period. What would be essential resources for teaching and
> research of Chinese history? How much money should be allocated over,
> say, a five-year period of acquisitions?
>
> What would you need? Bibliographical and text databases and journals;
> books in European languages, of which many of the older ones will be out
> of print; books and journals in Chinese (and some in Japanese). Aside from
> the recurrent expenses, how much would you need to spend on books in order
> to develop a respectable research library for a fairly focused section of
> China's history? We're not talking competition with the major research
> libraries in the field, but something that would provide unproblematically
> for teaching, and that would not be endlessly frustrating for research.
>
> All suggestions welcomed! The open-endedness of the questions above
> reflects the situation of building from the ground up.
>
> Please share ideas with the list and I will send them on to my friend.
