Research Abstract |
This study aims at describing the history of Japanese public libraries from the standpoint of 'local collection'. The survey about 'local collection' was targeted for the libraries of 2 areas, Santama(Tokyo) and Niigata. The former have started after World War II and been continually engaged in 'local collection' activities until today, while the latter had been started since before World War II and been extremely active in 'local collection'. Based on data obtained through several investigations(literature research, interview research, field survey), the researcher summarized the record of local collection activities in their respective libraries.
