Xi Jinping Cultural Thought is a theoretical summary of the practical experience of the Party's leadership in the construction of culture in the new era, and provides a powerful ideological weapon and a scientific action guide for the construction of culture in the new era. When General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected Tianjin in February this year, he demanded that he should do good work in promoting the development of cultural inheritance, and adhere to the principle of "benefiting the people with culture, benefiting the people with culture, running the city with culture, and developing the industry with culture". Yearbook work is an important part of socialist cultural undertakings with Chinese characteristics. In recent years, the Tianjin local chronicle system has adhered to the guidance of Xi Jinping Cultural Thought, improved and improved the yearbook work system and mechanism, solidly promoted the construction of the yearbook business, created yearbook cultural boutiques, and interpreted the mission in the new glorious course of socialist culture in the new era with practical actions.
01
Adhere to the party's leadership and ensure that the cause of the yearbook advances in the correct political direction
General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that in cultural construction, it is necessary to adhere to the fundamental system of Marxism's guiding position in the ideological field, and adhere to the cultural leadership of the Communist Party of China and the cultural subjectivity of the Chinese nation. (Xi Jinping: "Speech at the Symposium on Cultural Inheritance and Development", Qiushi, Issue 17, 2023) Tianjin local chronicle system has always insisted on putting politics in the first place and giving full play to the party's leading core role in the yearbook work.
Strengthen political and ideological guidance. The Tianjin Municipal Local Chronicles Office has thoroughly studied, publicized and implemented Xi Jinping's cultural thought through the study and discussion of the theoretical study center group, the holding of special reading classes, and the carrying out of grassroots research and publicity, so as to deeply grasp its great significance, rich connotation and practical requirements, and effectively enhance the sense of political responsibility and historical mission of doing a good job in the yearbook work. Firmly establish the Marxist materialist view of history, strictly adhere to the main ideological position, strictly control the political and historical facts of the compilation of yearbooks, resolutely oppose historical nihilism and other erroneous trends of thought, consciously safeguard the interests of the party and the people, and build a solid foundation for the high-quality development of the yearbook cause.

As public institutions directly under the Party committee, local chronicle work institutions at the municipal and district levels report yearbook work to the Party committee at the same level every year. From 2023 onwards, the work of municipal and district local chronicles will be included in the performance appraisal of comprehensive and strict governance of the party, forming a strong starting point for promoting the development of the yearbook.
Promote the legalization of the compilation of yearbooks. The work of local chronicles was included in the "14th Five-Year Plan" for economic and social development of Tianjin, and the Municipal Local Chronicles Editing and Revision Committee formulated the development plan of local chronicles in the city, clarified the key objectives and tasks of the yearbook work, and provided strong support for the high-quality development of the yearbook work. Strictly implement the "Regulations on the Work of Local Chronicles" and the "Measures for the Work of Local Chronicles of Tianjin", formulate the "Specifications for the Editing and Publication of the Tianjin Yearbook (for Trial Implementation)" and several measures for the quality management of the compilation of the Tianjin Municipal Local Comprehensive Yearbook, and guide all districts and relevant departments to carry out the compilation of the yearbook in accordance with laws and regulations. At the beginning of each year, the city's local chronicles work conference is organized to deploy the city's yearbook work. Regularly inspect the progress of the compilation of the yearbooks of each unit, perform the statutory duties of guidance and inspection, and promote the standardization and legalization of the compilation and publication of the yearbooks.

Strengthen the connection with television, radio and other media, launch a number of special programs, and use archival resources to tell the story of Tianjin and show the image of Tianjin. Use platforms such as Tianjin Archives Fangzhi Network and WeChat public account to publicize high-quality yearbooks and excellent yearbooks, show the value of yearbooks, and further enhance the social influence of yearbooks. Municipal and district local chronicle work organizations have gone deep into the grassroots and among the masses to carry out the "six advances" activities of local chronicles, preaching Tianjin's history and culture in organs, schools, and communities, and sending high-quality chronicles and yearbooks to party schools, military camps, and people's homes.
