| Abstract | This paper uses a modified Ripley's K function to examine the spatial evolution of urban system in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) of China during the period of 1980-2010. Furthremore, we examine whether coastlines and provincial borders benefit the concentration of city location or size distribution in this region. The results show that: (1) the spatial evolution of the YRD city location distribution reflects the orientation of national urbanization strategy, while its urban size distribution evolves as a result of game between government and market. The pattern of urban system continuously shifts between concentration and dispersion. (2) Border effect on urban system's distribution pattern is complex. Coastlines have positive effects on the agglomeration of the large cities with 0.5 to 1 million people, and provincial borders have positively or negatively influences on the YRD location and size. (3) The spillover effect of cities outside the YRD positively promotes the concentration of city location in terms of mega-cities, large-cities and small-cities. The size distribution of all cities, except for maga-cities, in the YRD shifts from concentration to dispersion. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
