Select -- E-Resources & Databases
Then type – "Chinamaxx" in the search box to find the “Chinamaxx Digital Libraries for Chinese E-Books.”

If you are accessing this database off campus, you need to enter your UH ID and Password.

Once you login to the Chinamaxx Digital Libraries, you will find 2 search boxes. You may use the upper search box to find the titles that our library has. You may also search the lower search box to view titles that we don’t have.

I also created a website to list those e-books titles. You may find the
list in the China Collection website --

You are welcome to recommend new e-book titles for us to buy. However, the China Specialist Librarian will review the titles and make decisions on which ones to purchase.
