資料庫內容包括經、史、子、集四部，其中以史部為主，經、子、集部為輔。若以類別相屬，又可略分為宗教文獻、醫藥文獻、文學與文集、政書、類書與史料彙編等，四十多年來累計收錄歷代典籍已達一千五百六種（新增書目），八億三仟三百六十四萬餘字，內容幾乎涵括了所有重要的典籍。計畫往後將以原建置書目為中心，逐年增設主題，並擴增系統功能，尚期為專家、學者以及愛好文化人士，提供品質更優良的電子文獻，以及更完備的檢索工具。

The project for the Scripta Sinica database began in 1984. The first aim of this project was to digitize all documents essential to research in traditional Sinology. Secondly, a full-text database was established for academic research. Until present, Scripta Sinica is the largest Chinese full text database to encompass an enormous breadth of historical materials of this scale. More than 1,506 titles（new titles）and 833,647,907 characters of materials pertaining to the traditional Chinese classics have been included in the database and have been categorized with meticulous care. The Scripta Sinica database contains almost all of the important Chinese classics, especially those related to Chinese history. In the future, we will continue with the digitalization of more historical materials, and add new features to the system. We hope to provide scholars, students, and the general public with an excellent full-text database and search engine for the study of Chinese history and culture.
