Nanjing University Library

Jiangsu, China

The Nanjing University Library, owned by Nanjing University, is a library in Nanjing, China, with a long history. According to its official website, the library is home to about 400 thousand ancient thread-bound Chinese books, and its total collection as of 2014 had reached 5.77 million. The library is very popular with students, with some controversy emerging due to long queues for study spaces and competition for seats. This issue was addressed in 2016, however, with the introduction of an online seat-booking system.
