Siku Quanshu (Complete collection of the four treasuries), compiled in the Qianlong period of the Qing dynasty, was the largest collection of books and cultural project in Chinese history. Siku Quanshu is divided into four sections: Jīng (經 "Classics"), Shǐ (史 "Histories"), Z# (⼦ "Masters"), Jī (集 "Collections"). Under the chief editorship of Ji Yun, the editors of the Siku Quanshu also completed an annotated catalog named Siku quanshu zongmu tiyao (四庫全書總⽬提要) to introduce and comment on the thousands of works that were considered for inclusion in the Siku Quanshu.
