Fu Jen Library
The Fu Jen Library
After Fu Jen was restored in Hsinchuang in 1963, the Liberal Arts Library,
the Social Sciences Library, the Natural Sciences and Foreign Languages
Library, and the Medical Library were consecutively established with independent
operation and management. Starting from 2002, the four libraries are virtually
integrated into the Fu Jen Library with the Social Sciences Library functioning
as the Main library by offering a full range of services to students, faculty,
and staff. Aside from collections of books and periodicals, the Library
also provides abundant online resources and participates in the Taiwan library
consortia in order to provide readers inter-library loan services. The Library
Committee, comprised of professors from each college, assists the library
service in expansion and development.

of books and periodicals in Social Sciences and Applied Sciences, encompassing
religion, statistics, economics, sociology, business administration, accounting,
and information management. The Periodical Section houses a collection of
important Taiwan newspapers published after 1949.

Liberal Arts Library features collections of books and periodicals in Chinese
linguistics and literature, history, philosophy, library and information

materials for the Problem-Based Learning approach. With the completion of
