This full-text searchable database covers Chinese local gazetteers of post-1949 (actually, mainly were published after 1979). One could read through the complete text of any given gazetteer online. Texts are also downloadable in small parts in pdf form by navigating through the Table of Contents. Users should be aware that the coverage of the database for the already published new gazetteers is far from complete though the database continues adding more titles as time goes by.
