Duke University East Asian Collection

UNC Libraries Guide and resources on Asian Studies

Duke and UNC have a long-standing agreement to share resources for scholars of Asia, and have divided responsibility for building research collections between the two campuses. Duke has focused on Japan, Korea, and South Asia, while UNC has collected extensively on China and Southeast Asia. More recently, Duke has expanded its Chinese collections, focusing on popular culture and the contemporary social sciences. The two libraries purchase materials available to patrons on both campuses, share a catalog, and provide mutual borrowing privileges and rapid delivery for materials.
