Xiaoxue huihan 小學彙函 is a series of collectanea (congshu 叢書) including texts of the genre of "lesser learning" (xiaoxue 小學) that can roughly be equated to lexicography. The series includes 14 books with a total length of 136 juan and was compiled during the Qing period 清 (1644-1911) by Zhong Qianjun 鐘謙鈞 (1803-1874).
The Xiaoxue huihan covers texts from the Han 漢 (206 BCE-220 CE) to the Song period 宋 (960-1279), among them eight "dictionaries", four commentaries, and two books on rhymes or phonology. Zhong made use of excellent contemporary editions of the texts which are very reliable.
The series was first printed in 1873 by the Yuedong Press 粵東書局. In 1888, a lithographic reproduction appeared as published by the Feiying Studio 蜚英館 in Shanghai. The Hunan Press 湘南書局 in Changsha published the series in 1889. The Xiaoxue huihan is also known as an appendix of Zhong Qianjun's series Gu jingjie huihan 古經解彙函, a collection of commentaries on Confucian Classics.
