Three ancient books from UM’s collection included in GBA National Rare Ancient Book Directory (2023/10/12)

Three ancient books from the rare collection of the University of Macau (UM) library have been selected by the Centre for Preservation and Conservation of Ancient Books of Sun Yat-sen Library of Guangdong Province to be included in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area National Rare Ancient Book Directory. The three items were donated to the university library by Ho Yin, then chairman of the University Council of the University of East Asia, the predecessor of UM. In 2010, the State Council and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism included them in the second National Rare Ancient Book Directory. The three ancient books, all of which are block books printed in the Ming dynasty, are well preserved and in excellent condition, and are of considerable significance to the study of history and documentation science. To cater for the research needs of experts and scholars and to promote traditional Chinese culture to the general public, UM library has digitised the three block books and dozens of Chinese and Western ancient books. These valuable resources are now available on the UM library website.
