  • Periodicals
    • Chinese periodicals located in West Stacks have been converted from Wade-Giles to pinyin and are online. (Please Note: This does not include titles which are entirely in remote storage.) In the summer of 2004, the library started on the conversion of Chinese periodicals located in Kane Hall Auxiliary Stacks. As this project progresses, more and more titles will be online in pinyin.
