At the meeting, Judit Gerencsér gave a short presentation on the national library, with special emphasis on the main tasks, services and innovations of the institution. Afterwards, the members of the delegation, Cultural Councillor Jie Sun, Attaché for Cultural and Educational Affairs Jieling Li and Third Secretary Yu Liu, were introduced to the history of the National Library, visited the Essence exhibition and had a look at the operation of the Digitisation Centre.

After the meeting and the visit to the building, the diplomatic corps also visited the National Library of Foreign Literature (OIK).

The dragons will now guard the Chinese language corner of the OIK.
