The Library is pleased to announce the launching of the digital resource, "Tribute Data Curation," which contains information about tribute presented to the Qing government from Heilongjiang. The whole digital resource contains 5 user-interactive graphs and charts:
Gift Quantities of Reign Periods
Change of Gift Types
Timeline of Givers
Distribution of Locations
Use of References
As this dataset grows, it will become an essential resource for understanding the economic, environmental, and political conditions of Heilongjiang during the Qing dynasty.
This digital resource comes from a close cooperation between Dr. Loretta Kim (Assistant Professor, Department of History) and the University Library. You are all invited to take a look at the site at: http://digital.lib.hkbu.edu.hk/history/index.php?lang=en
