The purpose of this paper is to analyze the administrative system and legislation of China and Taiwan's libraries with priority given to public library. The China is a republic in that the government has some democratic forms, especially at the local level, but it is controlled by the Communist Party of China In China the ministry of culture(ministry of education in Taiwan) is the national central body responsible for public libraries. Today in China there are about 2,698 public libraries in total and its governance is a provincial responsibility. For that reason, there does not exist a nation-wide public library act in China.

The aim of this study is to examine the influence of foreign library classification schemes on the Chinese classification systems in the library. And the study is to analyze development process of three modem library classification schemes, the $\ulcorner$Renmin University of China's Library Books Classifications$\lrcorner$, $\ulcorner$Chinese Academy of Sciences's Library Books Classifications$\lrcorner$and $\ulcorner$Chinese Library Classification$\lrcorner$which are being used in many libraries in China where the library is regarded an important organization for performing the national policies.

This study analysed work types of Chinese bibliographical records based on FRBR model to identify how many useful data there are in bibliographical records and how much difference in usefulness there is according to themes. For the purposes, the study randomly extracted samples of 2,200 Chinese books with 100 cases of 22 kinds from "Chinese Library Classification" through National Library of China's OPAC, targeting Chinese books collected by the National Library of China to analyse the work types of Chinese bibliographical records and their usefulness in application of the FRBR model according to themes and data types. The results are summarized as follows: Firstly, in applying the FRBR model for Chinese bibliographical records, 18.6% was considered as useful works for which simple work was added to complex work. Secondly, although it is a fact that usefulness is higher as bibliographical relations are more complex, only works by famous people collected in 'Marxism-Leninism'(A) and some classics and modern masterpieces collected in 'Literature'(I) have diverse versions of works such as sequels, revision, reproduction, adaptation, and critical books. However, if criticism, review, explanation and bibliographical introduction are included in specific subjects of 'Military'(E), 'Language and Words'(H), 'Literature'(I) and 'Comprehensive Book'(Z), it was clear that their usefulness is relatively high.

The Chinese Library Classification(CLC) is the most widely used national standard classification system in China. Since the first edition of CLC in 1975, the 5th edition of CLC was published in 2010. It was the result of an average of 9 years of revision for each edition. This study investigated CLC focusing on the formational background and developmental process of CLC, and characteristics and revision details of CLC's 5th edition. Because Korea has been close cultural relationship with China for a long time, this study will provide implications on Korean Decimal Classification(KDC) development.

China's reading campaign has started as part of youth education since 1993 and also has been conducted as government-level 'national reading activities' since 2006. This study was conducted to investigate and analyzed China's reading campaign as part of overseas case study of reading campaign, based on literature studies and internet survey method as well as meta study. As regard reading status, Chinese people's reasons to read or not to read books plus reading rate and reading amount were reviewed and the background, operation style and major activities of 'national reading activities' were investigated. The characteristics and problems of China's reading campaign were reviewed and 1) national level reading campaign, 2) intensive reading campaign through common subject and 3) youth reading education for self-education and character development were put forth for the betterment of reading campaign in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to suggest ways to improve development plan of the National Library of Korea, comparing development plan of the Library and strategic plans of national libraries in western countries, China and Japan. For this purpose, plans of national libraries in Korea and Overseas were collected and analyzed. And a rubric evaluation was applied to the case plans. The findings indicate that plan of the National Library of Korea is written for analyzing present problems, setting practical activity-centered detailed plans. On the other hand, plans of national libraries overseas present distinct mission and vision statement, and set up goals, objectives, concrete activities in the framework, which function as milestones for developing libraries. As a conclusion, this study suggests that the National Library of Korea need mission and vision statement, links among mission, vision, goals, objectives, activities, and ongoing library marketing. This study can contribute for the National Library of Korea to develop plan with the concept of strategic plan.

A metagenomic library of surface-water microbes from the Yangtze River in China was constructed, and a novel esterase, designated as EstY, was isolated and characterized. EstY had 423 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 44 kDa and pI of 7.28. It hydrolyzed various p-nitrophenyl esters(acetate, butyrate, caprate, caprylate, laurate, myristate, and palmitate) and its best substrate was p-nitrophenyl caprate(C8). The optimum pH for EstY activity was 9.0 and the optimum temperature was $50^{\circ}C$. Metal ions, such as $Mn^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Hg^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;and\;Fe^{3+}$, strongly inhibited the activity of EstY, whereas $Mg^{2+}$ was required for maximal activity. Activity remained in the presence of 10% alcohol, acetone, isopropanol, and dimethyl sulfoxide, respectively. An analysis of the amino acid sequence deduced from estY revealed that it had 7 closely related lipolytic enzymes. Moreover, a sequence analysis showed that EstY, like its 7 relatives, did not belong to any known lipolytic enzyme family.

Ginseng (Panax ginseng) has been used as a tonic drug in Chinese Traditional Medicine for two thousand years. It is believed to be significantly beneficial for human health. During the past 20 years. due to the modern chemical, biological and pharmacological technology. the ginseng research of China has been developed rapidly Major-work has been carried out by many laboratories in beijing. shanghai and shonzhen, etc Since most of the research works were supported by pharmacological companies. Many interesting papers sometimes are of confidential limitation. It is not easy to bind those papers in common library. To make a comprehensive review of ginseng is very difficult and reluctant.
