Online Union Catalogue of Chinese Local Gazetteers

This database has been developed by the Academia Sinica of
Taiwan, and is an important online tool to look for
bibliographic and holdings information for Chinese Local
Gazetteers. The database is based on the Union Catalogue
of Chinese Local Gazetteers published in 1985 by the
Academy of Sciences in mainland China, which contains
bibliographic information for 8,200 local gazetteers
compiled before 1949 and currently held by 190 libraries
and institutes across mainland China. In addition, the
database also collects the information of over 2,000 New
Gazetteers published after 1949.
