讲座中，葛馆长首先回顾了本月初与艺术无限展览开幕式同时举行的捐赠仪式，该仪式旨在表彰中共山东省委宣传部和山东出版集团对图书馆捐赠《儒典》系列儒学文献的慷慨之举。随后，葛馆长详细介绍了《儒典》系列丛书，这套书籍作为儒家经典的汇编与重印精品，展现了中国古籍保存工作的重要成果，并对中华文化的传承起到了积极的推动作用。他通过这一实例，引出了关于中国古籍保存历史的深入探讨。
During the lecture, Professor Ge recalled the donation ceremony of the “Confucian Classics” series earlier this month, coinciding with the opening of the Art Infinity exhibition. This collection showcases the crucial achievements in preserving ancient Chinese literature and positively contributes to the transmission of Chinese culture. This example led to a deeper exploration of ancient Chinese book preservation history.

紧接着，葛馆长从历史的角度，讲述了从秦代伏生传经到隋炀帝重视书籍副本，再到抗日战争期间对大藏经的抢救，以及新中国成立后对古籍文献的系统修复与保护等一系列故事。这些生动的历史案例，不仅展示了中国古籍保存工作的艰辛与不易，也彰显了中华民族对文化传承的执着与坚守。
Continuing, Professor Ge narrated a series of historical tales from the aspect of preserving texts, ranging from Fu Sheng transmitting scriptures in the Qin Dynasty to Sui Emperor Yangdi's emphasis on book duplicates, the Eighth Route Army rescuing Tripitaka texts during the war against Japanese aggression, and systematic restoration and protection of ancient books after 1949. These vivid historical cases demonstrate the difficulty and dedication involved in preserving ancient Chinese books and highlight the Chinese nation's persistence and commitment towards cultural inheritance.

讲座中，葛馆长还提及了私家藏书对于古籍保护的重要贡献，指出这些藏书家们同样在传承中华文明中扮演了不可或缺的角色。他进一步指出，随着科技的进步，现代生产技术与储存条件的改善为古籍保存提供了更为有力的支持。
