Japan Search
“Digital archives contribute not only to use related to the preservation, inheritance, and transmission of culture, tourism and regional development, education and research, and business - digital archives also promote new values and innovation. By linking digital archives from a wide variety of fields and regions, and organizing the various contents preserved by each institution into searchable metadata through Japan Search, clarifying the location of the contents, and enabling Japan's digital information resources to be found efficiently, we are endeavoring for their effective use throughout Japan.”
