Series IV: Publications Department, 1944-1949

Series IV consists of files generated out of China Institute's publishing and distribution activities, notably the National Reconstruction Journal and its Newsletter, and the China Institute Bulletin. The National Reconstruction Journal (學術建國嚴刊) was published by the Committee on Wartime Planning for Chinese Students in the United States, first in 1942, and was then distributed to various repositories including university libraries. Files relevant to the production of the China Institute Bulletin are also identifiable in the correspondences but the Bulletins are collected across the Series in the collection as they were used and distributed in various circumstances.
