Daily Records of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History
The Daily Records of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History database was completed in 1997. Its content includes two major works the Institute founder and first director, Mr. Kuo Ting-yee spent decades carefully editing and compiling: Daily Records of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History and Daily Records of the History of the Republic of China. These two reference works are comprised of more than 2,000,000 characters. Daily Records of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History covers 1830 to 1911 and focuses primarily on the Qing Dynasty. Its contents are concentrated mainly on politics, military affairs, and diplomacy. Yet every effort has been made to include other sources related to economics, society, and culture to make the data as complete as possible. Daily Records of the History of the Republic of China covers 1912 to 1949 and provides many texts of greater length with more detailed narration. Daily Records of the History of the Republic of China and the Daily Records of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History together constitute the most reliable record of this 150-year period of modern Chinese history. These two books are so tied to the pursuit of scholarship that they are essential references. In addition, the full-text database is of great benefit to scholars, allowing them to save time in catalog searches and text retrieval.

Detailed Preliminary Draft of Major Events in the Life of Chiang Kai-shek
The historical status and importance of Mr. Chiang Kai-shek to modern and contemporary Chinese history is extraordinarily well known. All in all, from 1912 onward through China's history of development and transformation, whether it was the pre-1928 eastern conquest or northern expedition, or the year of Chinese unification; the 1928-1937 ten-year reconstruction and period of “internal pacification first then external resistance”; the 1937-1945 difficult times of the War of Resistance Against the Japanese; the 1945-1949 internal war against the Communists or the period of turbulence and insecurity, Chiang Kai-shek was a pivotal player.

《王世杰日記》始於1933年，止於1979年，歷時四十七年；因其中偶有間斷，實際包含時間為三十四年份。王世杰先生一生志業涵蓋學術、政治、外交等方面，擔任過許多重要職務，曾任教育部長、國民參政會、國防最高委員會中央設計局等機構首長，並於1962年就任中央研究院院長。王世杰先生以學人從政，對史料之保存極為重視，故留有大批文件，為研究近代史之珍貴直接史料。其三十多年的日記，更是研究近代政治及外交史學者們的重要參考資料。

The Diary of Wang Shih-chieh (1891-1981)
The Diary of Wang Shih-chieh was kept from 1933 until 1979, and thus, spans forty-seven years. However, because there are a few internal breaks, the diary, in fact, covers only thirty-four years. Mr. Wang Shih-chieh's life work included academic, political, and diplomatic dimensions. He held many important posts: Education Minister; Secretary General of the People's Political Council; Head of the Supreme National Defense Council, Head of the Central Planning Bureau and other organizations. Additionally, in 1962 he became the president of Academia Sinica. Mr. Wang Shih-chieh was an academic who entered politics. He emphasized strongly the need to preserve historical materials. For this reason, he kept a great many documents that are now highly valued primary sources for the study of modern history. His thirty-some-year diary is an even more important reference for scholars studying modern political and diplomatic history.

朝鮮戰爭：俄國檔案館的解密文件
1990年代初，俄國開始大量發表有關朝鮮戰爭的回憶錄和採訪錄，在俄國、韓國和美國的報刊雜誌上以不同文字大量刊出。俄國檔案幾乎都是未經編輯加工的原件。雖然剛開始披露的一批文獻是政府有關部門挑選的，但以後更大量的檔案則完全是學者們直接從檔案館中發掘出來的。收入本文獻集的檔案，主要來自俄羅斯聯邦總統檔案館(APRF)、俄羅斯聯邦對外政策檔案館(AVPRF)、俄羅斯現代史文獻保管和研究中心(RTsKhIDNI)、當代文獻保管中心(TsKhSD)、俄羅斯聯邦國防部中央檔案館 (TsAMORF)。經過整理，共有554份文件，另有100多個附件。除極個別文件因無法找到俄文原件而譯自英譯本外，幾乎全部都譯自俄國原始檔案。

Korean War: Russian Archives Declassified Documents
Beginning in 1990, Russia began publishing a considerable number of memoirs and interviews related to the Korean War. Russian, Korean, and American newspapers, periodicals, and magazines each published in different languages. Russian archives consist almost entirely of unedited, original documents. Although the first batch of released documents were chosen by relevant government departments, the later, larger release was completely determined by scholars who had directly unearthed them from the archive. The documents collected in this archive come mainly from the following sources: The Archive of the President of the Russian Federation (APRF), The Archive of Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation (AVPRF), The Russian Centre for the Preservation and Study of Documents of Most Recent History (RTsKhIDNI), The Center for Preservation of Contemporary Documentation (TsKhSD), The Russian Centre for the Preservation and Study of Documents of Most Recent History (TsAMORF). After they were organized, it turns out that there are 554 documents and 100 supplementary documents. Except for a few rare files, which only exist in English translation and for which it was impossible to track down the original Russian sources, the rest are almost all directly translated from original Russian documents.

The Diary of Tan Yan-kai
The Diary of Tan Yan-kai covers 22 years and contains approximately 2,500,000 characters. Tan Yan-kai was an important political figure near the end of the Qing Dynasty and in the early Republican period. He lived through the late Qing Railway Rights Movement, the Revolution of 1911, Yuan Shikai's attempt to become emperor, the Nationalist Government Northern Expedition, and other historically significant events. His diary could be taken as important evidence for the history of the early Republican Era. Mr. Tan is also known as a famous calligrapher of the late Qing-early Republican Era. The handwritten manuscript diary is also of artistic value and can be appreciated by people who love calligraphy. Besides accounts of daily life, the diary also touches upon a considerable number of realms of knowledge, such as poetry, Chinese medical prescriptions, the ancient books and classics, plays, antiques, stone rubbings, recipes, photography, and so forth, and is truly a rich source of broadly inclusive materials.
