More recently in October 2002, the Library received again a large donation of nearly 1000 books - mainly contemporary reference books and Chinese language studies texts - from China National Office for Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language through the Chinese Embassy. The Chinese Consul-General in Scotland, Mr Liu Jingxue, and the Education Counsellor of the Chinese Embassy Mr Wang Yongda visited the Library on 28 November for the presentation of the donation. The Library has also received visits from the former Chinese Consul-General Mr Wang Weiyang, once to unveil a University commemorative plaque for Dr Wong Foon, the University's first Chinese graduate, and again on 3 May 2001 to inaugurate the Scottish Information Network Online for Chinese Studies (SINO-CS). |
