Comprising five parts of compilation, structure, restoration, history and research, the exhibition includes textual resources, images and artifacts, coupled with interactive devices that showcase the encyclopedia and the contribution made by Suzhou scholars.

In the first 10 days of the exhibition, for the first time the original volume on the Chinese character su is on display, which has close connections with Suzhou.

The exhibition runs until Nov 30, during which period the library will also host lectures and experiential events about the encyclopedia.
