Upon completion of its building in December 1970 , the various research centres and the Art Gallery occupied the Institute. The Institute has a Research Board composed of the heads of its seven research divisions, and publications are handled by an Editorial Board, which has so far published four volumes of the Journal of the Institute of Chinese Studies and a number of monographs and books. The Art Gallery has held six exhibitions on Chinese culture since September 1971.
