Talk:Shanghai Library

Possibly the tallest library in the world
Per Emporis, this library is taller than the W. E. B. Du Bois Library which is cited on various places in Wikipedia as being the world's tallest. Clearly then the Du Bois is not (it *is* to my knowledge the US's tallest), but I have no evidence that this one is in fact the tallest. Am marking it as such for now.  ∈ntroppie  10:38, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

I think you might be looking for this - http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=1555%2C%20Huai%20Hai%20Zhong%20Lu%20%28Central%20Huai%20Hai%20Road%29%2C%20200031%2C%20Shanghai&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl

Not sure what to do with it though, leave it here for you. Green chili (talk) 04:13, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

District?
In which district is the main library building? Would be nice to add a corresponding geography category. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:41, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Uncomprehensible wording
Shanghai library has compiled 130 volumes of ancient books (including books about 180 thousand copies), 160 thousand (of which 2 thousand copies)，the Ming and Qing Dynasties in modern letters 118 thousand. Is it only me who doesn't understand this, or is it the wording? Can somebody please rephrase this section? Thank you. --Stilfehler (talk) 14:37, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
