BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE PUBLISHED WRITINGS

WARREN M. TSUNEISHI (1921-2011)

Compiled and Edited by

Frank Joseph Shulman

Bibliographer, Editor and Consultant for Reference Publications in Asian Studies

Intended to provide librarians and scholars around the world with further information about his distinguished career, his various accomplishments in library and information science, and his scholarly contributions, this chronologically arranged, partially annotated bibliography is an extensive but not exhaustive listing of Warren Michio Tsuneishi's publications and some of his interviews from 1948 through 2007. It was compiled primarily on the basis of a brief examination of many of the books, edited volumes, journal articles and book reviews that are cited below and a search of four secondary sources: the Bibliography of Asian Studies (BAS), the catalogue of the Library of Congress, the Wilson Web, and WorldCat. It does not, however, list any of the unpublished reports that he wrote during his tenure as Curator of the Far Eastern Collections (1953-1957) and the East Asian Collection (1960-1966) at Yale University Library and as Chief of the Orientalia/Asian Division (1966-1978, 1989-1993)) and Director for Area Studies (1978-1989) at the Library of Congress. Likewise, most of his contributions to the Library of Congress Information Bulletin between the mid-1960s and the early 1990s are not listed because they could not be identified in time. The Appendix contains citations to a handful of the unpublished papers that were presented at regional, national and international conferences over the years.

Acknowledgments: This bibliography includes information contributed by Kenneth W. Berger, Ellen H. Hammond, Anchi Hoh, Gail King, Mari Nakahara, Ming-sun Poon, Anna Leon Shulman, Ding Ye, and the University of Maryland College Park Libraries.
