25 years ago—almost to the day—”Shanghai in Images” took off. With seed funding from the France-Berkeley Fund, my comrade-in-idea(l)s, Yeh Wen-hsin and I launched the first online database of Chinese historical photographs with two main goals in mind: to advocate for the use of visual sources in historical research and to share historical resources on the Internet.
The site is long gone, but the Wayback Machine of the Internet Archive captured snapshots starting in 2004. By then, our initiative had grown into a series of new databases at the Lyon Institute of Asian Studies.

It started a quarter of a century ago with grassroots initiatives like ECAI [https://ecai.org/]—led by the great Buddhism scholar Lew Lancaster [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Lancaster]—and countless independent projects like ours, all driven by the same vision: to share knowledge freely, across borders, without restrictions.
