Dr. Andrew Field's Chinese Book Collection

Dr. Andrew Field, the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs, has donated to the Library over 200 Chinese books  from his personal collection.  The subjects of the books range from Chinese history, through Chinese culture and society, to Chinese arts, literature, and music.  Among them, books on Shanghai history will be of particular learning and research interests of our students.  The Library would like to thank Dr. Andrew Field for his generous holiday present.
