Threadneedle Book Bureau
Threadneedle Book Bureau (Chinese: 线装书局), also Thread-Binding Books Publishing House (TBPH), established in 1993 and restructured as Thread-Binding Books Ltd. in January 2019, operates as a centralized cultural entity under the auspices of the China Publishing Association, serving as China's hub for the publication of thread-bound books.[1] It publishes publications that emphasize Chinese cultural classics and encompass diverse areas of modern and contemporary social sciences, including literature, history, calligraphy, painting, and academic theories.[2]
The Threadbinding Book Bureau has published numerous ancient texts and current works of significant academic, artistic, editorial, and collectible significance, garnering appreciation from readers both domestically and internationally. Notable series include the Thread-Bound Classics Collection and Chinese Rare Books Archives.[3][4]
In September 2010, six publishing houses—Study Press, Red Flag Publishing House, Xiyuan Publishing House, Gold Wall Press, Threadneedle Book Bureau, and Printing Industry Press—had finalized asset liquidation, dissolved their establishments, terminated their legal entities.[5]
