Statement of Work
Gelman Library � the China Security Documentation Center
16 April 2004
1.0 Background
During FY 2003, the National Intelligence Council (NIC) contracted with the Gellman
Library at The George Washington University to establish a "China Security
Documentation Center" to support the collection, cataloging, and storage of Chinese-
language books, articles, academic journals and other open source materials related to
issues associated with the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and China's national security
strategy. The excellent progress made toward this end during FY03 warrants the
continuation of this program. This effort supports a one-of-a-kind program benefiting the
Intelligence Community and US academics in the growing field of Chinese national
security studies. The National Intelligence Officers for Conventional Military Issues and
the MO for East Asia cosponsor this project.
2.0 Tasks
To accomplish the objectives of the MC, the Gellman Library shall:
2.1 Enlarge the Collection: During FY 2003, the Gellman Library compiled an
initial collection of Chinese-language books and journals from the personal
collections of academic specialists identified by the MOs for CMI and East
Asia and from other public and private collections. The MOs will continue to
encourage similar donations for FY 04 and the Gellman Library similarly will
continue to work through its contacts to enlarge voluntarily the collection. All
items provided to the Gellman library shall become the property of the
University absent agreement to the contrary with respect to specific items.
2.2 House the Collection: Provide space for the China Security Documentation
Center collection within the Gellman Library as currently provided. Changes
to the current location for the collection will not be made unless prior
coordination and approval from the MOs is received.
2.3 Catalogue the Assembled Material: The library shall catalogue, and
translate into English, the titles and publication data of all materials provided
to the China Security Documentation Center. Bi-annually, the library shall
provide to the NIO-CMI and NIO-East Asia an updated list of the holdings in
the collection.
