Southwest Jiaotong University is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education, a research university that is one of the first batch of "Double First-Class", "211 Project", "Featured 985 Project" and "2011 Plan" key construction projects in the country and has a graduate school. The school was founded in 1896. Its predecessor was the Imperial Chinese Railway College in Shanhaiguan. It is China's first engineering university and the birthplace of higher education in civil engineering, transportation engineering, and mining and metallurgical engineering in China. It is one of the two earliest sources of "Jiaotong University". It is famous at home and abroad for its "Tangshan Jiaotong University" and "Tangyuan". It is known as the "Cornell of the East". Comrade Mao Zedong wrote the name of the school. Since its establishment, the school has been named Tangshan Institute of Engineering, National Jiaotong University, Guizhou Branch, China Jiaotong University, Northern Jiaotong University, Tangshan Railway Institute, etc. In 1952, the colleges and departments of colleges and universities across the country were adjusted, and some faculty members of the school were transferred to Tsinghua University, Tianjin University and other brother colleges. In 1964, according to the spirit of the central government's construction of the "Big Three Line", it moved to Sichuan, and was renamed Southwest Jiaotong University in 1972. There are currently three campuses in Jiuli, Xipu and Emei, covering an area of more than 5,000 acres. The Emei Campus of Southwest Jiaotong University is located in the scenic Emei Mountain Scenic Area, which is listed in the "World Natural and Cultural Heritage List". It is an important part of the "one school, two places and three campuses" of Southwest Jiaotong University. The campus covers an area of more than 1,000 acres and has a construction area of 250,000 square meters. The campus has beautiful scenery, beautiful environment, good teaching and living facilities, and enjoys the reputation of "Garden Academy". It is an ideal place for learning and further study. At the 14th Party Congress in January 2015, the university defined the Emei Campus as "three places and one park", namely: the location of several colleges, the Sino-foreign cooperative education base, the high-end training and research base, and the high-end international education park. The university is working hard to build a "high-end international education park" in Emei. The "high-end international education park" is a comprehensive and multifunctional international university park with education, science and technology, and culture, which is built on the Emei campus with the resources of the entire Southwest Jiaotong University and has prominent focus, clear functions, complete facilities, and distinctive characteristics. In July 2018, the university formally established the Emei Campus Party Working Committee and the Emei Campus Management Committee, opening a new historical chapter in the development of the Emei Campus. 竢实扬华, 交天下。 Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, Southwest Jiaotong University is comprehensively deepening reforms, deeply promoting the construction of "Double First-Class" universities, and actively connecting with national strategic needs such as the "Belt and Road Initiative", "Strong Transportation Nation", and China's high-speed rail going global. It is unswervingly moving towards the overall goal of "a comprehensive research-oriented first-class university with distinctive transportation characteristics", and solidly building "the world's number one university in the field of rail transportation", and striving to write the Southwest Jiaotong University chapter of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The National Agricultural Library (NAL) was formerly the U.S. Department of Agriculture Library. It was built in 1862 and renamed the National Agricultural Library in 1990 through a congressional resolution, becoming one of the four national libraries in the United States. The main functions of the library include: assuming the service functions of the National Agricultural Library and the Department of Agriculture Library; collecting, organizing, managing, protecting, and providing agricultural information, and providing high-quality information services; helping, training, and guiding the information needs of agricultural consultants and assessors; assuming the role of a global leader in agricultural information resource management; meeting users information needs to the maximum extent through institutional cooperation or the use of information technology; and improving the level of global cooperation through national information exchange and a series of services and technical support. As of 2007, NAL has a collection of 2,400,000 periodicals and books and 3,600,000 government documents. Its collection resources rank 11th among 123 research libraries, with 166,000 "special" collections. In 1987, the organizational structure of NAL was adjusted from the original 6 units to 4 units, namely the Directors Office, Technical Service Department, Public Service Department, and Information System Department. Its characteristics are the realization of six integrations, namely, library and information integration, book and periodical integration, procurement integration, cataloging integration, indexing integration, and technology development integration. The user services provided by NAL include two counters and two rooms to meet the needs of mass consultation and reading. The second counter is the information counter and the professional reference counter. The information counter is located at the entrance of the first floor, answering readers general inquiries and daily affairs services; the professional reference counter is located near the reference tool book and journal reading room, and the librarians familiar with the business answer complex and highly professional questions. Every year, more than 12,000 inquiries from home and abroad and more than 1,000 letters are answered. Among the consulting units, 70% are from the Ministry of Agriculture, 18% from agricultural institutions, and 12% from others. The second room is the reference tool book reading room and the journal reading room. The former displays the main abstracts and indexes of various disciplines, providing convenience for readers to search and consult; the latter collects a large number of serial publications, which is convenient for readers to understand the latest scientific research results and trends. If members of the Ministry of Agriculture need to borrow journals, they can apply one day in advance. The document lending service of the library is also one of its important tasks. The lending department is responsible for providing collection documents to members of the US Department of Agriculture and the world. Readers can borrow and photocopy documents through various communication devices. In 1982, more than 157,000 documents were borrowed and photocopied, of which 75% were borrowed by telex, mail, and computer terminals. Generally speaking, 96% of the borrowing applications of members of the Ministry of Agriculture are met, and 80% of the applications of non-Ministry of Agriculture members are met. Every year, about 50 countries apply to the library for borrowing.

The National Audubon Society is an American non-profit non-governmental environmental protection organization, which was founded in 1886 to commemorate John James Audubon, a French American ornithologist, naturalist and painter. This society focuses on nature conservation and is the oldest organization of its kind in the world. The Audubon Society is committed to protecting and restoring the habitats of birds and other wildlife through publishing, promotion, and educational activities. Their work involves multiple fields, including ecological conservation, legal policies, public education, and bird habitat protection. In addition, the Audubon Society regularly organizes bird observation activities, providing the public with opportunities to observe and understand birds up close. At the same time, the organization also collaborates with the government, businesses, and communities to jointly promote the conservation of wildlife and plants. The National Audubon Society of the United States protects birds and their places of need today and tomorrow through science, advocacy, education, and field conservation. Audubon's state projects, nature centers, chapters, and partners have an unparalleled wingspan, benefiting millions of people every year and providing information, motivation, and solidarity for different communities in conservation actions. Since 1905, Audubon's vision has been to build a world where humans and wildlife thrive. Audubon is a non-profit conservation organization. Here's how we can make a difference. We have enabled members to participate in grassroots protection actions in nearly 500 local branches across the country. Audubon environmental policy, education, and scientific experts guide legislators, institutions, and our grassroots to develop effective conservation plans, actions, and policies to support them. More than 2500 Audubon designated Important Bird Areas have been identified, prioritized, and protected for important bird habitats from coast to coast - in collaboration with BirdLife International, our IBA conservation efforts support species and their habitats in the Western Hemisphere. "Community scientists" collect important data through Audubon's annual Christmas bird counts, coastal bird surveys, and other initiatives to conduct groundbreaking analysis and guide scientists and policymakers in addressing the needs of birds and other wildlife. Special conservation measures for the entire ecosystem focus on protecting and restoring the most unique places in the United States, from Tongass in Alaska to Sagebrush Nation and the Louisiana Coast. The Audubon Center and Reserve are centers for conservation exploration, research, and action, enabling millions of people to discover and protect the natural world. The educational program and materials are combined with the most acclaimed conservation magazine in the United States, Audubon Magazine, to introduce the wonders of nature and the power of conservation at home and abroad to students, families, and nature enthusiasts of all ages.
