Xianju Library
Xianju County, China
Xianju County Library, also known as Xianju Library, is a county-level public library located in Xianju, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China. It is under the jurisdiction of the Xianju County People's Government and is supervised by the Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism, and Sports of Xianju County. The library building is located at No. 2 Jiefang Street in Xianju County and includes several branches and academies in various forms. As of July 2018, the collection of Xianju County Library reached 811,314 volumes. In 2018, it was promoted to a national first-grade library. The history of the library can be traced back to the Xianju County Public Library established in 1927. Subsequently, it was divided into the Book Department of Xianju County Public Education Institute, the Library Room of Xianju County People's Cultural Palace, and the Library Room of Xianju County Cultural Palace. These institutions were the predecessors of the independent Xianju County Library established in August 1978. The current library building was constructed in 1986, with an area ranking at the bottom among those in Taizhou, making it unable to meet the daily needs. The ongoing construction of the Xianju County Library as part of the "Xianju County Urban Cultural Complex" will address this issue by relocating the entire library.
