Extract

This report is the result of the author spending three months as a visiting scholar at Nanjing Arts Institute in the People’s Republic of China. The first section was published in the Art Libraries Journal vol. 25 no. 4 2000 and gave general background information about a number of art libraries in China, their collections, and the resources available for acquisitions and staffing. In this concluding part the author documents the cataloguing and classification systems being used by the same libraries, their computer applications and networking, the public services they offer, and their physical layout.
