In the latest years, the Tsinghua University Library has made great progress in automation and networking. It provides access to an increasing number of electronic and virtual resources. These form a global open and multi-level information system for all its researchers and students, with more than 450 electronic databases, near 69,000 full-text e-journals, almost a million e-books and more than 35,000 multimedia collections.
