The Ministry of Education’s Department of Social Education was responsible for overseeing the operations of libraries. At the time, the Ministry of Education already had the idea to build a national library. In 1928, the University Yuan held a meeting on national education, during which it was decided to build a central library in Nanjing to be both the highest repository in the nation for scholarship...

On January 21, 1933, the Ministry of Education sent Fu-tsung Chiang to serve as a committee member of the National Library Preparation Committee. In March, the Ministry of Education ratified the seven articles comprising the Organizational Outline of the National Central Library Preparatory Office. This is the Library’s earliest organizational regulations. On April 21, an office was rented in Nanjing’s Shatangyuan. The Organizational Outline of the National Central Library Preparatory Office ratified by the Ministry of Education After it was first established, its holdings grew by sending letters to government offices seeking their publications.

It also carried out the Publication Law to collect new books published throughout the country. In July 1934, it took over the operation of the Ministry of Education’s International Publication Exchange Office and solicited publications from different government organizations. It also collaborated with the Commercial Press to print Siku quanshu zhenben chuji (An Initial Collection of Rare Books from the Complete Library of the Four Treasuries). These two sources were used to exchange publications with international institutions and thus acquire important Western reference works. On February 10, 1936, the library was moved to Chenghsien Street in Nanjing. In September, it was opened to the public.

In 1937, a construction committee was formed to draft the rules by which possible blueprints would be solicited and selected. The committee collected submitted blueprints but had not yet reviewed them when the project was suspended due to the war. The front gate of National Central Library at Chenghsien Street On August 15, 1937, Japanese troops conducted an air raid on Nanjing. Because of this, library services were stopped and important books were boxed up into 263 crates. These were transported to a newly-built and secret repository in the Chaotian Palace for the National Palace Museum.

The preparatory office moved to 32-2 Gaomenlou, Central Road. On November 18, a sudden directive from the Ministry of Education came to move the collection west. Only 130 crates of important works were able to be prepared, most of which were western works due to the difficulty of replacing them. These were moved to the southwest of China via a long and circuitous route. On February 12, 1938, they arrived in Chongqing. After it was learned that the Nationalist government was relocating to Chingqing, a request was submitted to the Ministry of Education to begin operations there.

This request was approved and a two-story building in Juxingcun near the Shangqing Temple was secured. In August of the same year, the Ministry of Education approved preparations for a branch library in Chingqing and organized a committee to oversee construction.
