The primary purpose of this paper is to analyze how the evaluation system for the development of infrastructures for science popularization was built in 2008 and why and how it was improved in 2012. The method used in our study is documentation, quantitative analysis, expert interview and summarization. The analysis strongly suggests that in today's China, it is necessary to build an evaluation system to measure the development of infrastructures for science popularization, enabling researchers to provide good advice to the government in policy-making concerning science popularization. It is concluded that the evaluation system has its academic value and works quite well. Furthermore, the development of the system needs to keep pace with changes of the social environment.
