VRA recently came out with the publication, A Guide to Cataloguing Chinese
Art. While it is about cataloging images of Chinese art rather than
books you may find it useful and at the very least it could help the
intern get a general overview of the history of Chinese art.

My library will have an intern this semester who will do
some cataloging
for us, including cataloging Chinese books about Chinese art.
I intend to
introduce him to the various resources available for art
cataloging (e.g.,
LC memos, Art Cataloging.net, ARLIS/NA Cataloging Section
webpage, etc.)
but I was wondering if any of my colleagues had some good tips
for
resources about Chinese art (in English or Chinese). I have to assume
that
the intern is not very familiar with Chinese art. (But he's fluent in
Chinese.)
Some questions which have arisen from our current cataloger
handling
Chinese books include trying to determine what's considered
Chinese
painting vs. Chinese calligraphy vs. Chinese drawing. She's noticed
that
Library of Congress tends to call everything "Painting, Chinese" when
she
would have placed it in calligraphy or drawing.
Any tips would be
greatly appreciated!
