如何查詢《教務雜誌》(The Chinese Recorder and Missionary Journal)
在 19~20 世紀的中國，The Chinese Recorder and Missionary Journal《教務雜誌》系列是持續出版時間最長的英文刊物，自 1868 年創刊，至 1941 年因太平洋戰爭爆發而停刊。這份刊物原是來華宣教士交換訊息及討論宣教工作的平臺，以協助對中國文化的瞭解與工作的推行。因記錄詳實，並輔以手繪圖片、照片、統計數字，因此不僅是西方觀察中國的窗口，也是今日研究中國近代史的第一手文本。
於館藏目錄以 ”Chinese recorder” 查詢題名，
會同時查到紙本的復刻本，以及收錄在資料庫的數位化文本。
