Overview
From Paula Curtis Collection[1]: This directory provides information on libraries and museums outside of Japan that hold old and rare Japanese materials, including manuscripts, printed books, and single sheet items, such as maps and ukiyoe prints. Each entry consists of the institution’s address, name of contact person, collection size, collection description, viewing possibility, reproduction policy, availability of online and print catalogs, and other relevant information. The directory was originally compiled by the Subcommittee on Japanese Rare Books under the Committee on Japanese Materials, Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL), based on survey results provided by the participating institutions in North America. Now with the cooperation of relevant organizations from wider areas, the scope of the directory has been widened to include holding institutions in Europe and the Oceania region as well.
