Books
Take a look at our Chinese fiction and non-fiction titles, plus books for children. These books are published in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Chinese books (adult and children fiction and non-fiction) started floating in May 2007. This means that a book will stay at the library branch it is returned to. You can find Chinese books at Central City Library and most of our community libraries including Epsom, Mt Albert, Mt Roskill, Panmure, Remuera, Avondale, Blockhouse Bay, Onehunga.
Magazines
We stock over 10 Chinese language magazines including Duzhe, Jiating Yisheng, Mali Jiare and Ming Bao. Try the Dragonsource database for access to popular magazines on a wide variety of topics. The magazine content is fulltext, and is available in both simplified and traditional Chinese characters.
