| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this project was to conduct research on the management and making available of pollution-related materials from the perspective of archival studies. The specific methods of this project were to focus on identifying the location of pollution-related materials, and to examine the characteristics and trends found in such materials. For administrative records (Koubunsho), we collected data on 20,382 items from prefectural archives, and for private documents (Komonjo and Shibunsho), we conducted a paper-based questionnaire survey of archival institution. From the results of these surveys, we were able to clarify the material significance of pollution-related materials, such as historical trends in administrative records and the inherent value of private documents.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本課題では全国の公文書館等における公害関係資料の所在情報把握作業をおこない、収集されたデータを報告書にとりまとめたことで、公害にかかわる研究資源の集約と提供という点で諸研究の基盤を整備することができた。これによりアーカイブズ学の分野では、公害関係資料に対するアーカイブズ資源・管理研究の深化が大いに期待できる。あわせて、そうした資料（群）の研究を通じて、アーカイブズ学に「公害アーカイブズ」という新たな分野を創造し、かつ現在と将来にわたる研究者や市民に公害関係資料の利用可能性を拓くものとして、学術的・社会的な意義が認められる。
