地方志是一種將一地的政治軍事、地理形勢、人文土俗等相關資料著錄成冊文獻資料,是研究一地相當重要的文獻資料。不過因為歷來朝代更迭,典籍散佚嚴重,尤其是地理圖集,散亡的更嚴重,也因為如此,使得地方志的淵源與發展至今仍然是學術界眾說紛紜的議題。雖然如此,現今所存的志書,大多以明、清為主,明、清地方志的大量編纂,也絕非突然出現,可以肯定是經過不斷的修改與變化才能造成明、清這樣的方志編纂全盛時期。明、清前的宋代,據現今可考,約有二十九部方志完本留存。 另一方面,最為中文學界常用的,莫過於志書中的藝文志與經籍志了,作者再整理宋代方志時,發現宋代志書中二十九部所收錄的藝文文獻相當的豐富,編纂、著錄方式也相當特別,所以作者希望透過宋代二十九部的地方志,從中分析內所收錄的藝文資料,詳細的將每筆資料整理與比對。進一步架構此種資料是否與明、清地方志中藝文志、經籍志是否有延承的關係。
