Asian Studies Resources

The East Asian Gateway Service, which is administered by the East Asian Library of the University of Pittsburgh Library System, focuses on free delivery of full-text Chinese and Korean language academic publications to researchers. The Chinese East Asian Gateway Service will deliver documents to any individual researchers for research and teaching purpose or non-profit organizations who cannot find the needed item in any U.S. libraries. However, currently, the Korean East Asian Gateway Service, as our new announced service, will deliver documents to Pitt faculty and students only. Full-text articles are transmitted electronically via the Internet from the participating libraries in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Korea which hold the titles, to Pittsburgh, where they are, then, sent to requesters via the Internet. Online Request Form for Chinese Material or Request Form for Korean Material are provided for your convenience to send your request to our service.
