A Masterpiece on Special History of Chinese Librarianship:A review of A Study of Chinese Libraries Circle During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression

刘劲松博士的《抗战时期中国图书馆界研究》是中国图书馆学史上专史研究的力作。它系统阐述了抗战时期图书馆界战时服务工作,梳理了抗战时期中外图书馆交流的历史,展现了大量颇有研究意义的图书馆史料和研究线索。虽然它还存在某些历史背景资料没有交待清楚、有些遣词和翻译也值得进一步商榷的不足,但是它的出版拓宽了图书馆史学者的研究领域,丰富了图书馆学的研究内容,为中国图书馆史学者和图书馆事业建设者提供了颇具意义的借鉴和启示。

A Study of Chinese Libraries Circle During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression by Dr.Liu Jinsong is a masterpiece on the special history of library science in China.It summarizes systematically the library services during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression,reviews the exchanges between Chinese and foreign libraries,and presents a large number of significant library historical materials and academic research clues.Although it still has insufficiencies including unclear background materials,inappropriate words,and mistranslation,it opens a w indow into the broader field of library history,enriches the content of library science,and provides meaningful reference and inspiration for Chinese library scholars and librarians.
