Abstract

Dr. Hong Cheng, a librarian and a historian at the University of California, Los Angeles, presents a groundbreaking and thought-provoking research on East Asian libraries outside of East Asia. The most important contributions he made to the field, through this Karl Lo Award-winning book, are his exploration of a theoretical model of Glocalism for East Asian libraries and defining East Asian libraries as a marginal science.
