①Have you ever heard of the British Library? It is one of the largest research libraries in the world.
②The British Library has more than 170 million items. Its collection includes 14 million books, along with a great number of manuscripts(手稿). In the Chinese collection, people can find more than 450 Chinese oracle bones(甲骨) dating back over three thousand years to the Shang Dynasty and the Diamond Sutra, the world's earliest-dated printed book.
③Recently, sixteen Chinese online novels have become the first Chinese web novels to be included in the British Library. Readers can look up the information of the 16 books on the library's website and borrow printed copies at the library.
④The books now in the library's Asian & African collections are The Wisdom of the Great Song Dynasty,Good Spring Time,Magic World and so on. And these works are considered as the classics of Chinese online literature(文学) from the past 20 years.
⑤The British Library chooses books according to readers' requirements and the value of the books — what the readers want to read and what works are important in culture. The collection of the 16 works shows that online literature has become important. Let's take one of them as an example.
⑥The novel named Good Spring Time gives special attention to china culture, showing a spirit that encourages people to fight against fate(命运) actively, and describes women's independence, as well as the love and care among family members.
⑦Although some people think it is not a big deal for the 16 Chinese works to be included in the British Library, others, especially, some fans and writers in China are very excited and regard it as a successful cultural exportation(输出). And they hope for more attention to web novels in the future.
