Researcher Assistant professor Masao Otani has researched on "Manyoushuu" and on how the Chinese poetry and prose from the Chuuko to the Chuusei period was read and understood. He is currently finishing a book of his annotations to the "Manyoushuu." His research also extends to the influences brought by Chinese literature to the "tanabata uta." He has also made a study on how the Chinese poetry and prose written by Japanese poets during the Heian period influenced the Japanese traditional poem, "waka" from the "Shinkokinshuu." This research has provided proof as to how the expressions used in Chinese poetry and prose have been adopted in the Japanese traditional poem, "waka," and has also revealed the characteristics of the expressions found in both.

In the following year, important materials were selected from that collection and were received from Naikaku bunko as burnt photographs. Many materials have also been obtained through the internet.
