Did you know that Needham Research Institute (NRI) is a major group involved in the history of Chinese science. According to its own description (www.nri.ac.uk), it houses the East Asian History of Science Library, and can be found in Cambridge, England.

This is the home of Science and Civilization in China Project and consists of many researchers from all over the world with an interest in the history of science, medicine and technology in East Asia. Joseph Needham (1900-1995) devoted his life to the study of Chinese science after the Second World War and set up the NRI.
