從清代官方纂修《四庫全書》起，《四庫全書》成為知識分子討論的焦點。近年來包括《文淵閣四庫全書》、《文津閣四庫全書》、《四庫提要分纂稿》、《四庫全書初次進呈提要》、《四庫全書總目》等大套相關叢書陸續翻印，近代學術中的「四庫學」，已走過時代的暗流，逐漸匯聚為一股重要的研究趨勢。《四庫全書總目》是四庫館編纂資料中，最重要的成果之一，在圖書學史、目錄學史、文化史上，都產生至為深遠的影響。就學術史而言，這部書曾被學者形容為「《別錄》以來，始有此書」，也曾被看作「愚天下人之書」，頗具爭議。《四庫全書總目》自四庫開館迄於全書纂成，歷經二十餘年，問世歷程曲折，所以通過不同提要的比對，應可考察《總目》思想的凝結過程，並凸顯官方定論的意義。本文就《四庫全書初次進呈提要》、《四庫全書總目》清代書籍提要進行比對，發現兩者具有：魏禧地位的淡化、王士禛效應的深化、批判明代文學的力道漸強、對於南朝文學逐步肯定等現象。

Ever since Qing Dynasty officials compiled the Siku Quanshu, the Siku Quanshu has become a focal point of discussion among intellectuals. In recent years, related collections such as theWenyan ge Siku Quanshu, theWenjing ge Siku Quanshu, the Siku Abstract Compilation Division Manuscript, the Siku Quanshu Primary Presentation Catalog, the Siku Zongmu, etc., have been one after the other reissued and reprinted, and so in modern academics, Siku Quanshu studies have already passed the period of being an undercurrent study, and have gradually come together as an important trend in research. While the Siku Library was compiling all of the resources, the Siku Zongmu was one of the most important achievements, and this book has had a really profound effect on the studies of the history of libraries, the studies of cataloging history, and the studies of cultural history. In regards to academic history, the Siku Zongmu book has been described by scholars as ＂since the Bie Lu, we started to have this book,＂ it was also seen as ＂the book that makes the people a fool,＂ which is quite controversial. The process of publishing this book was very difficult, and it took them 20 years from the time they started and opened the Siku Library to the time they finished the Siku Zongmu. By comparing the Zongmu with other Abstracts, we can observe and study the process of condensation in the Zongmu, and it will also reveal the meaning of the officials' conclusion. This article will compare the two Qing Dynasty works, the Siku Quanshu Primary Imperial Presentation Catalog and the Siku Zongmu, and has discovered the same four following occurences appear in both books, they are Weixi's weakened position, Wangshi zhen's deepening effects, the power of criticizing Ming Dynasty literature is getting stronger, and the gradual increase of recognition towards Southern Dynasty literature.
