This project started in 2004 with simple lists of titles found in libraries in Vienna/Austria – listing books on China (Greater China) published between 1477 and 1939. The blog Bibliotheca Sinica 2.0 takes the concept to a new level in providing links to digitized copies in libraries and repositories which are freely accessible.
As this is a work in progress, the lists that started this project are part of the project – listing more than 3200 titles (October 2010).
The titles are arranged alphabetically by name of (main) author.A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
N.N.(Books where no author is given)
Lists were compiled using data from library catalogues. As holdings were not cross-checked in autopsy [unless specifically noted], there is no guarantee that an item is available at the moment. In case you need to access a specific item, it is therefore suggested to check the catalogue and/or contact the respective library.
