If you start with the number of books registered with the National Central Library last year and listed in the new books catalogue, which is to say more than 19,000, one-fifth would then be 3,800 items. This is a rather startling figure. And how many Taiwan publications make it to the mainland?
如果以去年向中央圖書館登記，經過納入新書編目的台灣出版品，約一萬九千多種（出版冊數無法估計），五分之一已達三千八百多種，這個數字可謂驚人。
