摘要: 一些印刷数量的信息在近代方志中相对容易被找到,从这些信息中我们可以了解到:晚
清每种雕版印刷的新修方志印数多为二三百部,民国每种采用新技术印刷的新修方志印数多为五
六百部,重印旧方志的印数可能比同时期新修方志的印数少。总的来讲,近代每种新修方志的印
数主要稳定在几百部,下至几部、几十部,上至千部、几千部的情况较少。这种现象的产生可能
是由于方志的特殊性质、方志的稳定读者群小、缺乏印刷经费、志书价格高、印刷技术限制等原
因造成的。

Abstract: Information about print runs was easily found in modern local gazettes. According to these print
runs’ information, we can conclude that the print runs of wood block local gazettes in the late Qing Dynasty
were about 300, and the local gazettes with new technology printing in the Republic of China were about 500.
The reprinted local gazettes may be less. In general, in modern times, normally each kind of new local gazettes
is printed in hundreds of copies. It is unusual to get several copies, dozens of copies or thousands of copies.
The reasons for this phenomenon may be the special nature of local gazettes, the small reader group of local
gazettes, shortage of funds, the high price of local gazettes, limited printing technology and so on.
