Over the century, generations of librarians have used their diligence and wisdom to build libraries from scratch, gradually transforming them into centers that gather the wisdom of the Chinese nation's knowledge, carry the history and culture of thousands of years, and disseminate information and knowledge, providing public access to knowledge and information in an equal and free manner. Looking back at the process and looking forward to the future, summarizing historical experiences is highly beneficial for promoting the development of the industry.
