NEW ACCESS TO OLD MATERIALS:The Hong Kong Newspaper Literary SupplementsDigitisation Project

摘要

Newspapers are an essential resource for teaching and research activities in educational organizations. In many academic libraries, newspapers are stored in microform format to optimize on space. However, readers find it difficult to access this important pool of information efficiently. To meet the increasing demand for newspaper resources on Hong Kong literature in the universities of Hong Kong, the University Library System of The Chinese University of Hong Kong launched the Hong Kong Newspaper Literary Supplements Digitisation Project in 2000.
