Description

A beautiful space devoted to the culture of Asia has been quietly developing on a tucked-away waterfront property in Sarasota, Florida. This is the Elling O. Eide Center, a non-profit research library and preserve named for its benefactor, Elling O. Eide. Mr. Eide, a native of Sarasota, was a sinologist, linguist, teacher, and philanthropist, who left his extensive personal library with numerous books, rare works, Asian artifacts and paintings. There are approximately 75,000 volumes in the collection, which have never been fully inventoried, cataloged or classified. Bibliographic control of the collection has been extensive and ongoing since Mr. Eide’s death in 2012 in preparation for the transfer of the collection to the new state-of-the-art library building. Elling O. Eide Library will be the premiere research library of Chinese and Inner Asian Studies in the Southeast United States. This presentation will introduce the library and its collections. Presented at the 2016 Chinese American Librarians Association (CALA) Southeast Chapter Meeting, Rollins College, Orlando, FL. September 23, 2016.
