Dunhuang Documents Database

During an August 2019 meeting at the Dunhuang Academy, President Xi Jinping emphasized the need to promote the digital return of Dunhuang manuscripts and other cultural relics scattered overseas through high-tech means such as digitization and informatization, aiming for global digital sharing of Dunhuang cultural and artistic resources.

The year 2021 brought the completion of the construction of Dunhuang Documents Database project, a major project of the National Social Science Fund, led by Dunhuang studies expert Ma De and undertaken by the Academy's Dunhuang Manuscript Research Institute, providing a new search platform for Dunhuang studies worldwide.

In August 2022, the Dunhuang Academy announced the official launch of the Dunhuang Documents Database (https:// dhyssjk.dha.ac.cn/), which has become an important sharing hub for global Dunhuang literature resources. This website comprises four sections: basic information on Dunhuang manuscripts, digital images, full texts, and related research literature directories. As of December 2024, a total of 10,212 pieces of information about manuscripts and artworks unearthed from the Dunhuang Mogao Caves had been published, offering full-text searches and visual comparisons for manuscripts in Chinese, Tibetan, and Uighur. The database not only presents the relics from the Dunhuang Caves in a digital format to audiences worldwide, but also fills a gap in similar databases concerning Tibetan and Uighur texts, making significant progress in the digital return process of Dunhuang cultural relics.

敦煌遺書數據庫

2019年8月，習近平在敦煌研究院座談時指出：要通過數字化、信息化等高技術手段，推動流散海外的敦煌遺書等文物的數字化回歸，實現敦煌文化藝術資源在全球范圍內的數字化共享。

2021年，中國敦煌研究院敦煌文獻研究所承擔、敦煌學專家馬德主持的國家社科基金重大項目《敦煌遺書數據庫建設》結項，為全世界敦煌學研究提供了一個全新的檢索平臺。

2022年8月，敦煌研究院宣布“敦煌遺書數據庫”（https:// dhyssjk.dha.ac.cn/）正式上線。該平臺已成為全球敦煌文獻資源的重要共享平臺，內容包括敦煌文獻的基本信息、數字圖像、全文錄文和相關研究文獻目錄四個部分。截至2024年12月，已公布敦煌藏經洞出土文獻和藝術品信息共計10212件，并提供漢、藏、回鶻文文獻的全文檢索和圖文對照瀏覽。該數據庫的上線不僅使流散于世界各地的敦煌藏經洞出土品以數字化的形式呈現給觀眾，而且填補了同類數據庫在藏文和回鶻文錄文方面的空白，使敦煌流失文物的數字化回歸進程向前邁進了一大步。
