The modernized library covers 16000 m2 which currently, has over 1.07 million books, 1,300 different periodicals and journals in Chinese and other languages. Six different kinds of book-databases have been introduced and the database is also connected with Partners Harvard Medical International's library database.[8] The library currently contains seating for 2500 readers in the readers area and more than 350 seats in the electronic library access area.
