Bio

I am the Chinese studies librarian at the East Asia Library, responsible for reference service, instruction and collection development for the Chinese collection. I select Chinese language materials for all formats in humanities and social sciences. I help students, faculty and visiting scholars finding information they need for their research, teaching and studies. Prior to coming to Stanford University, I also worked as Chinese librarian at the Duke University Library.

Current Role at Stanford

I serve as a liaison to the faculty in different departments and centers in the field of Chinese studies. I manage Chinese special collections and variety of projects in processing and promotion of Chinese collection at the East Asia Library.
