Library Dean, Dr. John Buschman said that the establishment of the Chinese Corner made our library in group with Duke and Cornell Universities. Dr. Xue-Ming Bao, Electronic Resources Librarian and Library Liaison to Asian Studies, applied for the grant, and thanked all his colleagues for their support and help. Professor Dongdong Chen, Director of Chinese Program, and Director of Graduate Program in Asian Studies, informed the audience of the history and prominence of the Chinese Program at Seton Hall University, and appreciated the good support from the Library.
Qingqing Lan, a Graduate Assistant, helped with cataloging the books and reached out to the students in the Chinese language classes, She created a video program to promote the Chinese Corner (See the promotional video clips above).
