Abstract: | The article examined the pattern and distribution of the secondary information, systems and services in China. The objects of the study include the governments role and relevant policies, the distribution of discipline-oriented systems, the development from printed material to machine readable to data bases and the influence of transition to a market economy on the operation of current systems. The study showed that the structure of the secondary information systems was established and the government has played a dominant role in developing and maintaining the systems. The article further discussed the challenge of a new social and economic environment to the systems and the possible expansion of new products and services. |
