This virtual space is co-hosted by a team of librarians and staff of the Cheng Yu Tung East Asian Library. We hope to use the blog to better communicate with library users and more effectively disseminate information about research resources related to East Asian Studies.
The primary audience for this blog will be students and faculty of the University of Toronto, who are doing East Asia-related researches and need assistance with their projects. Having said that, other people who are interested in East Asian topics may also find the information posted here useful. People who visit the blog are more than welcome to leave comments about the posts. To contact EAL librarians, please email ref.eal@utoronto.ca.
