About 900,000 pieces and sets of cultural relics at the Palace Museum have undergone digitalization, constituting 48 percent of its total collections, said a cultural official. This was reported by The Xinhua News Agency.

"Among the 1.43 million sets of collections at the National Museum of China, 700,000 sets have been digitally processed", – said Lu Yingchuan, deputy minister of culture and tourism, at a press conference.

He noted that promoting the digitalization of such resources lays a solid foundation for better utilization and presentation.

"The country has also redoubled efforts to provide digital content in public cultural services, including projects for building a smart library system and public culture cloud platforms", – according to Lu.
