Resource for determining the history of a word that was imported from Chinese?

Is there like… A word history and etymology encyclopedia? Even if it’s expensive or only available in Japanese, anything would help.

EDIT: this looks promising, but maybe there are better ones. It has one 2 star review complaining there are too few words.

I don’t know if you can get access to 日本国語大辞典 online or in a library but it has word etymologies in detail
