The significance of the Xu Dishan collection to Chinese history and culture gained the attention of Historian and professor of Far Eastern History, C. P. Fitzgerald (1902-1992). Fitzgerald saw the collection as the first stage of building a world class Asian Studies library at the Australian National University. In 1950, on behalf of the university, he undertook the negotiation and purchase of the collection.
The portion of the collection held by ANU consists of 469 titles in 1,224 volumes and contains many rare editions and suspected orphaned sacred books on Buddhism, Taoism and other missionary publications of the time, including translations of the Bible. Items on Daoism and Buddhism make up the larger part of this collection and are of special interest since not many of those have survived in China and are sought after by researchers world-wide.

Bushfires of unprecedented duration and spread, then a pandemic, have led us all to wonder, when will this be over? When will we return to normal?
But what is normal in a dry and drying land is especially elusive. The archives can offer insights into how peoples past grappled with similar uncertainties, as non-Indigenous peoples reckoned with the continent's unfamiliar climes. Through their stories, this lecture explores what the disasters of 2020 have revealed about our relationships with the environment, and how we live on the driest inhabited continent on Earth.
