Royal Asiatic Society Shanghai in China Library Grand Re-Opening

It is with great pleasure we announce the grand re-opening of the library of the Royal Asiatic Society (RAS) China in Shanghai, located in the House of Roosevelt building on the Bund. The Roosevelt Club has provided a beautiful space on the third floor for the RAS library, which will be a resource centre and a quiet place of study for all RAS members. The RAS library will also host selected events and programs on the RAS calendar. The new library is near the site of the original RAS building, which is now the Rockbund Art Museum.

This move would not have been possible without the coordinated efforts of the management team at the House of Roosevelt, the office of the British Consulate General in Shanghai and supporters of the Royal Asiatic Society China, whom we gratefully acknowledge.

Our grand re-opening will take place on Saturday 23^rd September at the library. Please join us in celebrating this event at the ribbon cutting ceremony, followed by drinks and hors d’oeuvres in the Roosevelt Club’s private bar.
