Summary Modern Buddhist studies has enjoyed a research history of more than a hundred years in Western and Japanese universities. Recently，Mainland China has also added valuable contributions to the field. In Taiwan，on the other hand，a considerable number of scholars are devoted to Buddhist-related studies, yet they lack collaboration and coalescence. The Center for Buddhist Studies, National Taiwan University seeks to fill this need by promoting integrative and interdisciplinary research, and providing the means for efficient international academic exchange of information. Therefore，since the spring of 1995 the "CBS Buddhist Internet Database" project has been progressed. The aim of this project is to serve the international Buddhist community and compile a continuously updated and accurate Buddhist bibliographic and informational database.
