More than 23,000 books of old Japanese publications from the Japanese Colonial Era are preserved under constant air conditioning facilities. These are various publications published by the government and private publishers during the Japanese Colonial Era, including books, magazines, and official gazettes, which are mostly out of print now. The contents of these old publications present the colonial policies and systems of the government during the Japanese Colonial Era. They not only are references to the overall historical development and individual historical incidents during the Japanese Colonial Era, but are also precious literatures in understanding the political, economic, and social changes of the era. These publications have high research values and are not available for checkout.
