Dear colleagues,

We would like to announce a new research tool that has been launched at the Autonomous University of Barcelona as part of our European Research Council-funded project on Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Invasions of Korea.

The Database of Research on the Imjin War brings together bibliographic information on modern books, articles, and dissertations relating to Hideyoshi's Invasions (also known as the Imjin War, the term we are using), and makes that information available to scholars in one easily searchable location. Our hope is that this multilingual database will help scholars keep abreast of the latest developments in other language areas, or become familiar with what has already been written on this important topic.

Due to ongoing pandemic, the 2020 conference was held virtually on facebook, videos of the presentation are available on our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/ChineseMilitaryHistorySociety/

The Chinese Military History Society will hold its 2020 conference in Arlington, VA, on Thursday, April 30, in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Society for Military History. The program will be sent to CMHS members in February.
