About Korean Collection
Korean
Library Collections at the University of Michigan
July
2010
The
establishment of the Center for Japanese Studies in 1947 and the Center for
Chinese Studies in 1961 has further developed teaching and research on East Asia.
Michigan eventually became a major center for Asian education with the creation
of the centers for the study of Asian languages and cultures. Korea-related
studies at the University have a relatively short history of 20 years compared
to other East Asian Studies at the University. Korean language courses were
first offered in 1990 and the Korean Studies Program (KSP) was officially
founded in 1995 at the International Institute with generous financial support
from the Korea Foundation. The KSP was upgraded to the Center for Korean
Studies (CKS) in 2007.
To satisfy the instructional and research needs
of the rapidly developing KSP, the Korean Collections began to collect books
and other materials on Korea on a large scale in 2000. One epoch-making development
is to join the Korean Collections Consortium of North America (KCCNA) as the 10th member in 2003. The
Consortium is funded by the Korea Foundation and each member library is committed
to develop in-depth collections on assigned subject areas. Michigan is
responsible for further developing the following subject areas; Historiography, Democratization, Reunification questions, Labor relations, Auto industry,
Publications on Korea and Korean published in Japan, Publications on Korea and
Korean published in Detroit and Mid West area.
As of June 2010 , the holdings of the Collections number more
than 36,000 in monographs and periodicals, and a wide range of e-resources. There is no doubt that the Korean Collections continue to
help facilitate groundbreaking scholarship in Korean Studies with the strong
commitment and support of the University and the Foundation.
