The World Trade Organization (WTO) Resource Centre at the University of Hong Kong is supported by WTO with the endorsement of the Hong Kong SAR Government. The Centre is an integral part of the University's Institute for China and Global Development. Its aim is to promote a better understanding of the world trade regime in Hong Kong and the region.

The Centre's Collection was set up as a virtual collection of WTO information and publications to support research and training programmes of the Institute for China and Global Development, multi-disciplinary research and teaching activities in the University related to interactions with the global economy; and to provide essential information needs to other academic and research institutions, government agencies, business and industry organizations.

The Collection consists of monographs, serials, pamphlets, non-prints, electronic and Internet resources covering a wide range of subjects including policies, trade, industry, environment, and law. These materials are acquired through purchase, with Internet resources identified from the World Wide Web.

Print and non-print materials published or authored by GATT/WTO are located in the Special Collections, 1/F New Wing of the Main Library Building. These materials are available to faculty, staff, students, visiting researchers as well as the general public for consultation during Special Collections opening hours. For further information, please contact the Special Collections at 2859-2207.

Publications about but not published or authored by GATT/WTO are shelved in different locations in the Main and branch libraries for use by the University community.

All GATT and WTO publications are catalogued and can be searched in Dragon, the Library's online catalogue. In addition, electronic access to indexes and full-text resources is available from the Libraries' CD-ROMs, online databases, and Internet links via the WTO Resource Centre Collection home page.
