History

[edit]

The predecessor of the Anhui Provincial Library was the Anhui Province-established Library,[6] which was founded on February 10, 1913.[7] It was set up by a group of culture lovers on their own initiative.[8]

The library was moved several times due to wars, and in December 1962, it was moved to its present location.[9]
