Abstract
Village gazetteers are among the most important primary sources for the study of Chinese village history and development. Gazetteers contain copious information on a village's administration, economy, culture, education, dialect, etc. that often cannot be found elsewhere. Contemporary Chinese Village Gazetteer Data (CCVG Data, 数字村庄) is a project initiated by the University Library System to collect data from village gazetteers and present it in open-access datasets, supporting teaching and research on Chinese village history and development. The data coverage period is 1949 to the present, though the final year of coverage for each village varies due to varying gazetteer compilation and publication dates. There are 18 datasets included in CCVG Data: Gazetteer Information; Village Information; Natural Environment; Natural Disasters; Year of First Availability; Last Names; Ethnic Groups; Population and Migration; Military, Politics and Management; Economy; Family Planning; Education. All are available for free download. For user’s convenience, CCVG Data is bilingual (Chinese/English). Data collection began in August 2018. By November 2022, data on 2,701 villages had been processed. To ensure the consistence of administrative village and document type, 100 natural villages were removed. Data from the effective number 2,601 villages were extracted and entered to a customized platform to create the datasets and downloadable in .csv format. A website supporting this dataset, including a data dictionary, information on the data structure, citation information, as well as a CCVG Data Map is established. 村志是研究中国乡村历史及发展的最重要的原始文献之一，因为它包含了关于村庄管理，经济，文化，教育，方言等大量材料，且这些材料往往是在其他地方找不到的。Contemporary Chinese Village Gazetteer Data (CCVG Data 数字村庄) 项目由匹兹堡大学图书馆系统原创和开发，旨在从村志中提取数据，以支持中国村庄历史和发展的教学和研究。数据覆盖期为1949年至每部村志编辑和出版的年份。 18个数据集包括村志信息，村庄信息，自然环境，自然灾害，首次拥有年，姓氏，民族，人口与人口迁移，军事、政治和管理，经济，计划生育，教育等等，供用户免费下载。为方便使用，此数据集提供中英两种语言。数据提取工作始于2018年8月。截至2022年11月，项目共进行了2,701本村志数据的提取工作。为保持村庄和村志类型的一致，移除100个自然村村志，最终从2,601本行政村村志中提取数据并输入定制平台，并提供. CSV格式下载入口。CCVG数据网站已经创建，包括数字村庄地图、使用者手册、数据结构、如何引用等内容
