Editor ‘s Note

With this issue, the Journal of East Asian Libraries moves to being a peer-reviewed journal. This change was approved by the CEAL Executive Board during the annual CEAL meetings in March, 2010 and sustained by a survey vote of the membership in May, 2010. The Executive Board also determined that the Journal would move from three issues per year to two issues per year, February and October. This issue marks the inauguration of those changes.

Beginning with this issue the February issue will be made up of reports, while the October issue will be comprised of peer-reviewed journal articles. Each issue will include a section for new appointments, retirements, and other newsletter-type announcements. The deadline for the February issue is December 31, and the deadline for the October issue, in order to allow time for the peer review process, will be April 30.

All contributions should be sent as usual to the Editor, Gail King (gail [email protected]). The Editor will manage the peer review process, and Members-at-large of the CEAL Executive Board will function as an Editorial Board to conduct peer review of submitted articles. If an article requires special expertise to assess fairly, the Editorial Board will secure knowledgeable, competent reviewers.

As I see it, the JEAL editorial policy should emphasize both success and rigor in the review process. Please do not hesitate to submit an article out of fear that it will be rejected outright. We are committed not just to high quality articles but also to helping colleagues succeed.

From the President

Dear Colleagues,

The Executive Board has been busy planning for the annual CEAL meeting which will take place from March 29-31 in Honolulu, Hawaii. This year’s gathering will be a special joint AAS- International Convention of Asia Scholars (ICAS) conference in celebration of “70 Years of Asian Studies,” which has an unexpected impact on CEAL meetings. Rather than our usual Wednesday-Friday schedules, it has become necessary for us to start on Tuesday. While the changed schedule may have a negative impact on our travel budgets, it gives us more time during the week to attend AAS sessions or explore the host city. (Speaking of which, can you think of a better place to spend the additional day than in “paradise”?) Another divergence from past traditions is the joint program of the three Committees on Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Materials. Rather than the usual separate programs by each area committee, this year the C, J, and K Committees are holding a joint program, an extension of last year’s successful experiment by Committees on Technical Processing and Public Services. The fellowship dinner will also be different. Reflecting the comments received on the survey, we are going to try a Korean buffet and will do away with excessive introductions of international guests. I thank our colleagues at the University of Hawaii for their hard work on local arrangements. Detailed information about the CEAL program will be published on Eastlib and on the Website (http://www.eastasianlib.org) as it becomes available.

One of the significant achievements of the CEAL Executive Board since the last JEAL issue was the revision of the Bylaws, which was passed by the CEAL membership in December 2010. This JEAL issue includes the new Bylaws and the background information on the revision.

Please read the Editor’s note on the preceding page about important changes in the journal format and schedule starting this year. The new peer-review process being implemented this year represents significant additional responsibilities and challenges for the Editor as well as the reviewers. On behalf of all readers, I express my deepest gratitude to our most wonderful Editor, Gail King, and the Editorial Board. I entreat prospective contributors to be prepared to submit articles according to the new schedule to help their work.

I regret to note that a respected leader and beloved colleague, Dr. Warren Tsuneishi, passed away on January 29. We are devoting a special commemorative section in this issue to his life and career. While some of us did not have the opportunity to get to know him personally, we are grateful that many colleagues and friends shared their appreciation for and reminiscences about how Dr. Tsuneishi inspired and touched their lives. I, for one, am honored by the privilege of calling him a fellow librarian, and gratefully acknowledge that the quality of my career is better today because of his pioneering contributions to East Asian Librarianship. As one colleague lamented, rather than express our appreciation when our colleagues pass away, let’s do it while they are with us. I challenge you to reach out today to those who helped you in your career and acknowledge and express your appreciation for their contributions.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

I put this philosophy into practice when I highlighted Gail King’s contributions to CEAL in the last issue of JEAL. In this issue I wish to honor another very special colleague, Vickie Doll. Since this is our annual statistics issue, it is fitting to honor the person who designed, engineered, and orchestrated the CEAL Statistics database. While the annual print version (as featured in this issue) is useful in its own way, I am sure you have marveled, as I have, at the amazing functionality of the online database. Without Vickie Doll’s technical skills, dedication, and labor of love for over a decade, we would not have these wonderful resources.

Vickie’s passion for service led her to be named the Chair of the CEAL Statistics Task Force in 1999. Her charge was to collect and compile CEAL statistics from 2000 to 2002, building on her predecessors’ work to make CEAL statistics compatible with the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) format to include data on collections, staffing, expenditures, library services, and library characteristics, and taking into account the special needs of CEAL institutions. In order to implement her innovative ideas, she secured funds for a student programmer, initially from the Center for East Asian Studies (CEAS) at the University of Kansas and later from the Title VI grant through the CEAS. The 2000-2001 survey was conducted online for the first time. Ever since, she has added new forms and new categories such as DVDs, e-resources, e- books, and e-journals reflecting the evolving collection formats.

In 2006, after obtaining copyright clearance from Dr. Tsuen-Hsuin Tsien 錢存訓 for all past reports, Vickie began building the retrospective database, working with her student programmer to make it work with the main database. Vickie and Statistics Committee members (Fung-ying Fang Simpson, Calvin Hsu) manually input all the retrospective data by 2008. The result is, as we all know, the powerful, interactive, customizable CEAL online database at http://lib.ku.edu/ceal/. If you have not yet had a chance to do so, I encourage you to explore all the wonderful functionality it offers, e.g. rankings (by regions, by table, by funding, etc.) and growth rates for selected range of years. Vickie’s next goal is to develop collection content (see http://lib.ku.edu/CEAL/naecco/).

I also had an opportunity to work directly with Vickie on the Bylaws Committee this past year, and benefitted from her professional wisdom and insight, not to mention her industry and efficiency. I am comforted knowing I can turn to her for advice when faced with difficult questions, which I often do.

On behalf of all CEAL members and CEAL Statistics users, I salute Vickie and her Committee members (Wen-ling Liu, Calvin Hsu, and Fung-ying Kuo Simpson) with my highest appreciation and admiration for their exemplary service. I also thank those at the University of Kansas who have supported Vickie with funds, server space, technology, and undoubtedly in many other ways. Without Vickie and KU’s support, the CEAL Statistics database --one of CEAL’s most significant gifts to East Asian scholarship and librarianship-- might not exist today, and our profession and our lives as librarians would not be the same.

IN MEMORIAM

Warren M. Tsuneishi

July 4, 1921- January 29, 2011

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Warren Michio Tsuneishi, the fifth of ten children, was born on July 4, 1921, in Monrovia, California, and died on January 29, 2011, at age 89. His parents, Satoru and Sho Murakami Tsuneishi, were immigrants to the United States from Kochi Prefecture, Japan. Of his parents, Warren later wrote, “My father arrived in 1907, and my mother in 1915 after completing mandatory service as a schoolteacher. My father graduated from Monrovia High School, and entered USC [University of Southern California] with the objective of obtaining a divinity school degree. But his dreams of higher education were foiled, first by illness, and then after recovery [b]y marital obligations. He was throughout most of his adult life a truck farmer in Duarte, California, specializing in berry crops. In his spare time, he wrote haiku and with like-minded friends, edited and published “Tachibana,” a haiku magazine for immigrant Japanese with a taste for poetry.”1

Born on Independence Day and named for U.S. President Warren G. Harding, Warren viewed himself from childhood on as a Yankee Doodle Dandy.2 With his brothers and sisters he attended a Saturday language school organized by Japanese families, mostly farmers, in the Monrovia-Arcadia-Duarte area east of Los Angeles. Even though the Japanese American community in the area was small and isolated and the Tsuneishi family in particular lived farther away in Duarte, Warren remembered attending many community events and activities that linked them to Japanese traditions and culture, such as judo and kendo tournaments and Japanese language classes. 3 He attended Duarte Grammar School with non-Nisei [second generation Japanese American] students, some of whose families befriended him. One of these became his best friend through the Boy Scouts. In Warren’s words, “His parents virtually adopted me, and they became my second set of parents.”4 Although the Tsuneishi family lived alongside Caucasian families, they still faced discrimination at schools and at other public facilities, such as the swimming pool which was closed to “coloreds, Blacks and Hispanics” except on a designated day of the week.5 Warren graduated at the top of his high school class and was assistant editor of the yearbook. Nonetheless, "the school counselor did not encourage me to apply for college, because professional job opportunities for Japanese American graduates were not readily available."6 His parents, strongly believing in the value of education, overrode this advice, and Warren enrolled at UCLA in the fall of 1939 after paying twenty-seven dollars in fees; there was no tuition. In September 1941 he transferred to the University of California, Berkeley to study political science.

When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Warren was in his third year at Berkeley. After December 7, fear and resentment against the Japanese spread across the United States, especially

California. The War Relocation Authority was established by executive order on March 18, 1942, and more than 110,000 Japanese-Americans on the West Coast were interned in ten detention centers in isolated areas in California, Arizona, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, and Arkansas. 7 Some 13,000 Japanese Americans from the San Francisco Bay Area were evacuated to the temporary quarters at Tanforan racetrack in San Bruno. While Warren managed to finish his spring term at Berkeley, his friends and family further south were incarcerated at the Santa Anita racetrack and Pomona Fairgrounds. "They converted them to holding pens," he explains. "Whatever we could carry we could take. People were angry and frightened. In the Western states, we were aware of the long history of discrimination, but we were brought up to be Americans, and therefore optimistic." The Tsuneishis were sent to Heart Mountain Relocation Center, located twelve miles northwest of Cody, Wyoming, on a high, treeless plateau, soon after it opened on August 11, 1942. There, each family was assigned a single room in the standard-issue GI barracks; everyone ate in the mess hall. Warren joined the family in October after doing summer labor in Idaho, thinning sugar beets and putting up hay, and harvesting beets and potatoes in the fall. Of Heart Mountain he recalled, "It wasn't home, but it was not Dachau.8 There was no curfew. There were dances, ice skating, parties. These were not death camps.”

Warren was able to leave Heart Mountain to complete his education at Syracuse University in upstate New York because its chancellor, William P. Tolley, opened the university to evacuee students as did some other colleges. Warren’s brother Hughes, who was then a student at Camp Savage in Minnesota and who later served with the Allied Translator and Interpreter Section (ATIS),9 suggested that Warren volunteer for the Military Intelligence Service [MIS] Language School. He did so upon graduation from Syracuse in August 1943, because "I wanted to prove myself, even with bad eyesight and flat feet."10 The Army had opened the first MIS Japanese-language school in November 1941 in the Presidio in San Francisco, near General John L. DeWitt's headquarters. It had sixty students—fifty-eight of them Nisei. Soon after Pearl Harbor, the school moved to Minnesota, first to Camp Savage and then to Fort Snelling because all the teachers were Japanese Americans who could have been forcibly removed from the West Coast—this despite the fact that their understanding of Japanese culture and language and insights into Japanese ways of thought made them the key to the program's ultimate success. By 1945, 5,700 Nisei and 780 Caucasian students graduated from the MIS Language School. Among their duties were translating captured documents, monitoring Japanese radio broadcasts, spying and eavesdropping, preparing propaganda leaflets and broadcasts, and making surrender appeals over loudspeakers to cornered Japanese troops.11

Warren spent six months at Camp Savage in the intensive military Japanese language program and then went through two months of infantry basic training at Camp Blanding in Florida. After basic training all recruits were shipped back to Fort Snelling prior to their overseas assignment.

Warren and the group of ten Nisei that he was part of were granted a brief leave of absence, and he returned to Heart Mountain to say goodbye to his parents, brothers, and sisters. In June 1944 the ten Nisei were sent to Schofield Barracks, Wahiawa, Oahu, Hawaii, where they were named the 306th Headquarters Intelligence Detachment of the XXIV Corps that was then being organized. After jungle training in Oahu, the XXIV Corps boarded ships to form part of the Army that returned to the Philippines with General MacArthur, landing on Leyte Island on October 20, 1944. Most of Warren’s work involved translating captured documents. Of this he wrote: “I recall staying up all night following a Japanese airborne attack translating a captured top secret operational order found on the body of a member of the attacking force spelling out in detail the mission, objectives, personnel, and equipment carried by the airborne force. Their mission was to knock out airstrips being built by the Seabees, and then link up with Japanese ground forces on Leyte. . . . Another document I translated comprised secret information on the force defending the Camotes Islands situated between Leyte and Samar. The inhabitants had radioed MacArthur seeking help because the occupying forces were slaughtering civilians. . . . I translated a document identifying the occupying force—naval engineers units of perhaps 400 men. They were wiped out when they attacked our lines in a banzai attack.”12 The XXIV Corps was part of the Battle of Okinawa, and Warren helped translate a top secret operational order laying out the strategy for the defense of the island. The strategy was: Let the enemy land with their full forces and supplies with minimum resistance; take up dug in defense lines on an escarpment bisecting the island; let the Imperial Navy kamikaze attack and destroy US naval and supply ships; and then destroy the invading forces cut off from their supplies at leisure. Warren commented, “It goes without saying that knowing enemy intentions is half the battle.”13

At the end of the war, the XXIV Corps was sent to Seoul, Korea, to accept the surrender of Japanese forces and to occupy and govern South Korea. There, Warren Tsuneishi served as an interpreter and translator. He and the other Japanese-speaking members of the unit would interpret from English into Japanese, and their Korean associates would interpret into Korean, as many Koreans could speak and read Japanese fluently.14 While serving in Korea Warren visited his sisters in Japan, who were working as translators at General MacArthur’s headquarters. He recalled, “I had observed the devastating effects of naval and aerial bombardment on Okinawa, [and] . . .I was aware of the enormous civilian casualties suffered by the Okinawans. Even so, I was unprepared for the enormity of the devastation of Osaka and Tokyo, so huge was the scale of destruction and I could only imagine the sufferings of the Japanese people. . . . Lives were shattered. Many people lived in the streets virtually in rags and yet they were not beggars. I had profound compassion for their plight. They were no longer the impersonal enemy. They had suffered.”15

Warren Tsuneishi was awarded the Bronze Star by Lt. General John Hodge, CG, XXW Corps, in a ceremony in October 1945 at the Chosun Hotel in Seoul. He had reached the rank of Technical Sergeant and in early January 1946 was offered a commission if he would sign up for another tour of duty, but he chose to return to civilian life. With the opportunity of education made available by the GI Bill, he matriculated in late January 1946 in the Department of Chinese and Japanese at Columbia University, and received his M.A. degree in classical Japanese literature in 1948. In the meantime, at an April Fool’s Day Dance in 1946 at the Japanese Buddhist Church in New York, he met Betty Teruko Takeuchi, a design student at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn from Honolulu, and they were married on November 16, 1946. Over the years three children were born to them. Their first child David was born in Syracuse, New York in 1948, the same year Warren received his M.A.; their second son Kenneth was born in 1951; and their daughter Julia was born in 1959. After completing his M.A., Warren began studies in the Graduate Library School of Columbia University and received his MSLS in 1950. Warren’s first library job following graduation was as a part-time Japanese cataloguer at the Yale University Library beginning in 1950. At the urging of his wife Betty, he enrolled in the Yale graduate school and received his Ph.D. in political science from Yale University in 1960. His dissertation, written under the direction of Chitoshi Yanaga, studied the political and constitutional changes in the Japanese emperor system during the Occupation. One reason that he chose this topic was that “. . . during the war I simply did not understand how the banzai attackers and the kamikaze pilots could throw their lives away with ‘banzai’ on their lips.”16

From 1953-1957 Warren Tsuneishi served as Curator of the Far Eastern Collections at the Yale University Library, and from 1957-1960 he was Head of the newly-created Far Eastern Languages Section of the Library of Congress [LC] Cataloging Department. In 1961 he returned to the Yale Library and until 1966 served as Curator of its East Asian Collection; from 1963-1964 he also lectured in the Yale Department of Political Science. As Curator he presided over a major expansion of East Asian acquisitions and personnel, inaugurating the first “integrated area collection,” that brought technical services, collection development, and public services into one library department.17 Returning to the Library of Congress in 1966, he became Chief of the Orientalia Division, a position he held until the Library’s reorganization of 1978, at which time he was promoted to Director of Area Studies in the Library’s Research Services Department. With the Library reorganization of 1989 he was appointed Chief of the Asian Division, a position he held until his retirement in 1993.

During his thirty years at the Library of Congress, Warren Tsuneishi participated in several important developments in East Asian librarianship. As head of the Far Eastern Languages Section on the late 1950s he was the first to supervise the Library’s cataloging of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean language materials in accordance with newly established cataloging rules that standardized the use of both Romanization and CJK script on the LC

printed cards. In the 1960s Tsuneishi helped plan LC’s only National Program for Acquisitions and Cataloging (NPAC) center in East Asia, established in Tokyo in 1968. In the 1970s he assisted in plans coordinated by the Library of Congress to send the first American delegation of librarians, represented by LC, the American Library Association, the Association of Research Libraries, and the Association for Asian Studies, to the People’s Republic of China, for which he received the Library of Congress Superior Service Award.18 In the 1980s he served as the representative of the Library of Congress to the Research Libraries Group (RLG) East Asia Program Committee during the period when RLG, with the cooperation of LC, was developing online network cataloging of East Asian language materials. In the early 1990s he played a leading role in the planning and negotiations with the Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership that resulted in the establishment within the Asian Division of the Japan Documentation Center.19

Warren Tsuneishi was active in several library and academic organizations. He served from 1964-1967 on the Executive Group of the Committee on East Asian Libraries of the Association for Asian Studies [AAS] and as Executive Group Liaison to the Association of College and Research Libraries [ACRL] from 1967-1980. From 1971-1982 he was a member of the AAS Bibliography of Asian Studies Advisory Committee. He was a member, and in 1967 chairman, of the Special Subcommittee on Romanization of Japanese of the Z-39 Subcommittee of the American Standards Institute and also served as Chairman (1966-1968) of the East Asian Acquisitions Committee of the Association of Research Libraries. He was a member of the International Education Project Task Force on Library and Information Resources of the American Council of Education (1973-1974) and from 1975-1978 served on the East Asian Libraries Steering Committee of the American Council of Learned Societies.20

Warren Tsuneishi was particularly interested in the field of international library relations and served with distinction in several related organizations. From 1974 to 1980 he was chairman of the American Panel of the Subcommittee on Libraries of the U.S.-Japan Conference on Education and Cultural Interchange (CULCON), and in 1983 he was elected president of the International Association of Orientalist Librarians, a position he held until 1991. He was a member of the American Advisory Committee of the Japan Foundation (1982- 1984) and of the U.S.-U.S.S.R. Commission on Library Cooperation (1987-1991). His most substantial contributions in this area were his activities on various committees of the American Library Association, where he was a member of the International Relations Committee (1987-1989), the Armenian Earthquake Relief Committee (1989-1991) and chair of the International Relations Round Table (1983-1984). For over twenty-five years he was a member of the ALA International Relations Advisory Committee for Liaison with Japanese Libraries, where he played a major role in organizing five U.S.-Japan Conferences on Library

and Information Science and in editing and preparing for publication the proceedings of four of these conferences.21

Tsuneishi was also a guest lecturer on technical processes in Asian collections and on Japanese library systems at summer library institutes from the 1960s through the 1980s and was one of the attendees at the conference held in Washington D.C. in June 1991 that resulted in the founding of the National Coordinating Committee on Japanese Library Resources (NCC).

Warren Tsuneishi was proud to be an American and worked to help his country realize “. . . Thomas Jefferson’s ideal of equality and justice for all [in the Declaration of Independence] . . . . [and] these same core American values in the Gettysburg Address, [and] Martin Luther King’s dream.’”22 Having himself experienced discriminatory language and practices since childhood, he firmly believed that “. . . racial, ethnic, religious, or other derogatory and hateful epithets that have been used historically to ridicule, stereotype, debase, and humiliate the groups so described have no place in modern society . . . .”23 and sought to educate the American public on the patriotic contributions of the Nisei to their country. 24 He was a member of the Japanese American Citizens League and was proud of how Japanese Americans, inspired by the civil rights struggles of African Americans, organized to demand redress for the losses and injury suffered as a result of their internment during World War II.25 One of The Greatest Generation and a member of the Japanese American Veterans Association, Warren Tsuneishi recalled with pride and dignity his service during World War Two.

Following his retirement in 1993, Warren continued his active interest in Asian libraries and Japanese history. Despite the difficulties entailed by increasingly diminished vision, he researched such topics as the origin of the Tsuneishi name following the Genpei war in 1195, the nine Japanese sailors who were serving on the USS Maine when it was sunk in Havana Harbor in 1898, and the liberation of the Camotes Islands off Leyte, The Philippines.26 In addition, he served as an honorary member of the Board of Directors of the Asian Division Friends Society of the Library of Congress from the time that the ADFS was established in 2004/2005 until his recent death. He also enjoyed gardening and birding with his wife.

Warren Tsuneishi is survived by his wife, Betty Teruko Tsuneishi, three children: David Ian (Wendy), Julia Sachi Tsuneishi, both of Maryland, and Kenneth Lee Tsuneishi of West Virginia; four grandchildren: Kevin Warren and Lisa Joy Tsuneishi of West Virginia, Jean Marie Tsuneishi of North Carolina, and Monica Tsuneishi of Maryland; three brothers: Noel, Paul (Aiko), and Yoshihiro (Fumi) Tsuneishi and two sisters: Frances and Rose (Jack); a sister-in- law, Sally Tsuneishi; and many nieces, nephews and other relatives.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE PUBLISHED WRITINGS

WARREN M. TSUNEISHI (1921-2011)

Compiled and Edited by

Frank Joseph Shulman

Bibliographer, Editor and Consultant for Reference Publications in Asian Studies

Intended to provide librarians and scholars around the world with further information about his distinguished career, his various accomplishments in library and information science, and his scholarly contributions, this chronologically arranged, partially annotated bibliography is an extensive but not exhaustive listing of Warren Michio Tsuneishi's publications and some of his interviews from 1948 through 2007. It was compiled primarily on the basis of a brief examination of many of the books, edited volumes, journal articles and book reviews that are cited below and a search of four secondary sources: the Bibliography of Asian Studies (BAS), the catalogue of the Library of Congress, the Wilson Web, and WorldCat. It does not, however, list any of the unpublished reports that he wrote during his tenure as Curator of the Far Eastern Collections (1953-1957) and the East Asian Collection (1960-1966) at Yale University Library and as Chief of the Orientalia/Asian Division (1966-1978, 1989-1993)) and Director for Area Studies (1978-1989) at the Library of Congress. Likewise, most of his contributions to the Library of Congress Information Bulletin between the mid-1960s and the early 1990s are not listed because they could not be identified in time. The Appendix contains citations to a handful of the unpublished papers that were presented at regional, national and international conferences over the years.

Acknowledgments: This bibliography includes information contributed by Kenneth W. Berger, Ellen H. Hammond, Anchi Hoh, Gail King, Mari Nakahara, Ming-sun Poon, Anna Leon Shulman, Ding Ye, and the University of Maryland College Park Libraries.

Memories of Warren Tsuneishi from family, friends, and colleagues

On behalf of my family I would like to thank the Journal of East Asian Libraries for honoring my father, Dr. Warren M. Tsuneishi.

Even though he was busy with his professional duties he found time to spend with his family. We went fishing and camping as a family. He encouraged all his children to further their education formally or informally. When I was in elementary school he “edited” a short story I wrote and I am sure that a large percentage of the grade I got can be credited to his editing. He helped me obtain a position in the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Library. As a grandfather he was concerned about his grandchildren’s education and careers. Even while in the hospital before he passed away he expressed this concern and asked me how I was doing.

He also took interest in my mother’s activities as a potter and painter and built an outdoor kiln for her. We shall all miss him very much. My grandmother met my grandfather [Satoru and Sho Murakami Tsuneishi-Ed.] when he was giving a talk at the normal school she was attending. According to family legend she attended that meeting and decided that he was the man she wanted to marry, which she did supposedly against the wishes of her father, who disowned her. As the legend goes, on his death bed with all his family around him he said, “One of my daughters is missing,” referring of course to my grandmother. Upon her death my grandfather sent a lock of her hair to be buried with her parents.

My daughter interned at the Library of Congress last summer in the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program. At the end of her internship the interns from all parts of LC put on a presentation of their work in the Jefferson Building. Her grandfather went to see that program. (One of the other exhibits showed a military map of Leyte Gulf and so he took time to talk to the presenters.) When we left we walked through the Asian Reading Room, and the librarian there recognized him. Also, later other librarians approached her and said that they remember my father. She was very impressed by this and by the fact that given his extreme myopia he could still navigate the halls and underground tunnels of the LC complex.

Dr. Warren Tsuneishi was my friend and colleague. When he died on January 29, 2011 at the age of 89, I lost someone with whom I’d enjoyed a warm, close relationship for many years. We met during JAVA’s early days. We both were involved in planning, organizing, and participating in the 1993 MIS reunion and Warren and I then co-edited a collection of the personal experiences described by MIS panelists at that reunion. This was published in 1995 by JAVA as MIS in the War Against Japan or, as it is more popularly known, American Patriots, an additional title that Warren placed on the front cover. The book has enjoyed wide circulation, especially when Warren and I sold and personally autographed copies during JAVA’s participation in the annual Washington DC Sakura Matsuri. Each year Warren also monitored the number of copies still available and saw to it that more were republished when needed.

During World War II, Warren volunteered for the MIS and served on Leyte and the Camotes Islands in the Philippines and then on Okinawa. By an odd coincidence, the chief of the language detachment in which he served was an old friend of mine from MIS and the occupation of Japan. Following Japan’s surrender, Warren was stationed in Korea, where he was awarded the Bronze Star. When he returned home, he earned his Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale, published several scholarly works, and ended his professional career as chief of the Asian Division of the Library of Congress. He and I had a mutual interest in the war in the Pacific, Warren for having served there and I as an historian who wrote about it. I have fond memories of our many warm discussions.

Warren was a kind, friendly, and gentle man—although he looks rather fierce in the picture of him on Leyte that we included in American Patriots. He was solicitous of the feelings of others and considerate when dealing with them. He never hesitated to ask for other opinions and was willing to discuss them openly and carefully while always firmly stating his own view. As his eyesight began to fail in his last years, he never complained and was grateful for any help he received. When it came to signing our book at the Sakura Matsuri, he would ask me to guide his fingers as he carefully wrote his name. He was rightfully proud of his service in the war, and people at the Matsuri to whom he described his experiences were always fascinated by what he had to tell them. Warren’s death was a personal loss to me and I shall miss him very much.

Stanley L. Falk

Stanley Falk was in the Army Japanese language program (Military Intelligence Service Language School) and met Warren Tsuneishi in Washington in JAVA’s early days.

Our fond memories of Warren include the fact that he was our mentor for the Army portion of our book, Kanji and Codes, Learning Japanese for WWII. He and Betty graciously invited us to their home when we were beginning our research on MISLS, and his continued guidance through the development of the project was invaluable. Dr. Tsuneishi will always be remembered by us for his scholarship and for his friendship.

The passing of Dr. Warren Tsuneishi caused me to remember my relationship with him and the impact he had on my life. I especially recall our first contact. In 1969, while I was a doctoral student at the University of Chicago, my advisor, Dr. T.H. Tsien, asked me to serve as a graduate assistant for Warren, who was brought in to teach advanced courses in Asian research and bibliography. I was both pleased and intimidated by the prospect. But Tsuneishi Sensei could not have been more generous or supportive. It was the beginning of a cordial relationship that continued when we both were in Washington, and I was occasionally a guest in his home, and later when I was at Yale. After he retired, we had fewer opportunities to see each other. To me, he was a giant in the profession, an inspiration to many of us, and a warm and generous human being. I valued his friendship and am grateful for the impact he had on my life.

Jack A. Siggins University Librarian The George Washington University

It must have been in fall, 1973, that I first met Warren Tsuneishi. I intended to do some research at the Library of Congress and had announced my visit; he received me kindly and then left me in the competent hands of K. T. Wu. I was allowed to see the rare items and was even locked in the cage to go through some uncatalogued materials. It was difficult to get a hold of Warren—there were always staff meetings, management meetings and other appointments. He was a manager librarian, very much committed to his job, and I remember the resignation in his voice when years later, on another visit, he indicated that the library’s policy went a way that he did not consider the most desirable one. That was shortly before the responsibility for the Orientalia Division was laid into other hands.

I remember that Warren and his wife took me on an outing one Sunday afternoon. They probably took pity on the young foreigner who was still struggling with English. So we went to an oyster roast organized by the local fire company; it was not unlike a German volksfest in the country, save for the oysters and sweet potatoes, of course. And they took me to Chesapeake Bay to get a glimpse. It really was a glimpse only, and thus I was introduced to the American way—in Germany people would have spent at least half an hour walking around and enjoying the landscape. But we had looked left and right, so it was time to get into the car and head back. Warren impressed me as being very American, even his Japanese had a good American accent. If my visit to the Library proved very successful it was owing to Warren’s and K. T. Wu’s hospitality and support.

Hartmut Walravens Berlin, Germany

Dr. Tsuneishi was easy to approach and always helped whoever sought his help or guidance. He had kind words for everything we did, even little things. When I was looking for information to compile Ms. Naomi Fukuda's obituary not knowing where to start, he called our

The Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

library's circulation to help me to contact with the right people. Although he could not see very well nor write due to his eye problems, he always responded to my Christmas card year after year after his retirement with his own hand-written kind words, except the past Christmas which made me worry about him. He was one of my mentors, and he influenced me to support to junior librarians.

Yasuko Makino Japanese Bibliographer The East Asian Library Princeton University

As we recall the wonderful contributions that Warren made to our field, let's not forget that his service was broader. When he spoke, his words often seemed wise. It was a hard won wisdom, I think.

Fortunately the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress recorded an interview with Warren in 2002 in which he tells his story in his own words. Born on the Fourth of July, he was truly a great American, a member of the Greatest Generation.

I recall hearing Warren speak on several occasions of how glad he was to have chosen librarianship for a career, and about what a great field it is. He never worried about recruiting future librarians, because he saw our work as attractive and interesting.

Warren's presence among us raised us all up, and his legacy is lasting.

Maureen Donovan Japanese Studies Librarian Ohio State University Libraries

Dr. Tsuneishi was instrumental in bringing the "Japan Documentation Center" project at LOC to fruition. No small task! It was a pioneering effort that filled research needs at a time when digital resources were limited and a mindset of openness in information flows needed to be actively promoted. He was unfailing in his encouragement and support to Ichiko Morita (director of the JDC) and myself, as well as our colleagues in Tokyo, to make this project work.

After Dr. Tsuneishi retired from LOC and he was no longer "my boss," I got to know him through activities related to his military service in World War II. As others have said, his personal courage and optimism in difficult times is exemplary. As a Nisei, he was a native English speaker who came forth to use his language skills in the Military Intelligence Service (MIS). On a personal level, I found this to be an inspiration to us in the library field to work just a little harder to improve our Japanese, Chinese, or Korean as second languages. I came to know some of his other service buddies through veterans events at the Library of Congress.

The Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

A funny story to share. I always addressed him as "Dr. Tsuneishi." His buddies would say, "we don't call him Dr. Tsuneishi." Moreover, he would often tell me, "just call me Warren." I tell you, this felt so unnatural to me. Being rather old-fashioned myself, I feel once a sensei, always a sensei. right? First name basis?!!! Gradually, however, when I telephoned him occasionally, I would take a deep breath and say, "Hello, Warren."

Indeed, he will be missed. A giant in our field.

Laura Wong Johns Hopkins University

I was pleased to hear such kind and generous words about Warren Tsuneishi [posted on Eastlib], and I am somewhat astounded at how many years he has been away from our relatively closed world.

[Laura Wong’s] comments were particularly moving to me, in part, I guess, for the “Nisei connection.” Among other experiences, it was a generous Nisei farmer (also Pacific Theater, Military Intelligence) who made it possible for me to complete my undergraduate education. He called me to his house one evening before my final school year was to begin and handed me full-year tuition in cash, telling me only to “pass it on to others younger.”

I did not really meet Warren Tsuneishi until much later, though I had occasion to hear him several times, and had exchanged pleasantries. Thirty years ago, when I was at work on my dissertation, he took time out for me when he happened to be visiting Seattle. I had been working to support myself and my studies at the Public Library, dealing chiefly with Asian language, and had come to consider the idea of a career in academic librarianship. Mr. Tsuneishi urged me to complete my studies and then move on to librarianship, stressing the great need for trained subject specialists. I followed his wise counsel, and have been rewarded by many challenging and fulfilling experiences and by a wonderful group of people in the East Asia Library field. I am very grateful.

I treasure, too, his humility in an age in which so many seem to have an almost obsessive need for titles to add to their name. Titles are not really necessary for those like Mr. Tsuneishi, whose scholarship and knowledge shine in their day to day work.

Fred Kotas Cornell University

While Dr. Tsuneishi received his doctorate from Yale ('60, Political Science) and worked at Yale (first as a Cataloger from 1950 through 1957 and then as Curator of the newly named Far Eastern Collection from 1960 through 1966), I never had the privilege of meeting him myself. I did know a bit about his life and career and was always impressed by his incredible vision and range of contributions.

The Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

He really exemplified a new breed of postwar curator/bibliographer who came into the field as a librarian first and later pursued a doctorate. At LC, he was very involved in the effort to standardize use of Roman and original script fields on LC printed cards, helped get the Tokyo "field office" off the ground in 1968, and also received LC's Superior Service Award for assisting with planning for the first U.S. library delegation to China in the 1970s. Maureen's description of him as a truly great American is absolutely true; it is interesting to know that (as an LC press release euphemistically described it in 1993) he was "evacuated to a relocation center in Wyoming" when the U.S. entered World War II and later served with distinction in the Pacific theater.

Ellen Hammond Curator, East Asian Library Yale University Library

Dr. Tsuneishi was also very generous with his advice in the early days of the NCC, helping with many issues. His thoughtfulness and knowledge were invaluable.

Amy Heinrich Former Director, C.V. Starr East Asian Library, Columbia University First Chair of the North American Coordinating Council for Japanese Library Resources (NCC)

Not only did Dr. Tsuneishi make great contributions to the Library of Congress Asian Division, but he gave a tremendous boost to LC’s Exchange and Gift program. For more than twenty years Dr. Tsuneishi gave to the LC Exchange & Gift Division, now the China Section, Asian and Middle Eastern Division, his own collection of library journals, namely College & Research Libraries, American Libraries, etc. to be sent to our exchange partner, East China Normal University. With his gift, we receive more than twenty journal titles from the university in return. Dr. Tsuneishi brought his library journals to us every year without fail. Last year was the last time he came to our office with his two bundles of library journals to be forwarded to the East China Normal University. I deeply admire his caring and unfailing support for the university Dr. Tsuneishi had promised to help build their library when he first visited them more than twenty years ago.

Anna Ho Library of Congress

The last time I saw Dr. Tsuneishi was about two years ago when he came to my office in LC donating a few personal copies of recent library journals to the Asian Division, which he headed for many years decades ago. He looked rather weak, although still very sharp-minded. I had some ominous feeling after our brief conversation.

The Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Dr. Tsuneishi left behind a rich legacy of East Asian library administration. His dedication and leadership exemplify a high standard for us. We grieve for the loss, and are filled with admiration.

Ming-sun Poon Library of Congress

My contact with him was rather limited to CEAL meetings yet I sensed he left us his spirit of “commitment” to every situation and circumstance. Time moves on. Yet, he is there speaking and talking to us long after his departure. We all miss him deeply.

Hisako Kotaka OCLC, Inc.

[From the Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 145 (June 2008), special issue recalling Naomi Fukuda] When Ms. Fukuda and I were chatting with Prof. Gitler, someone patted me on my shoulder. When I turned around I faced Dr. Warren M. Tsuneishi of the Library of Congress. He asked me who was the gentleman with whom I was talking. I replied that he was Prof. Gitler, my library professor at the JLS. Then, Dr. Tsuneishi said that he had heard of Prof. Gitler’s name, but never met him before. Immediately, it was my pleasure to introduce Dr. Tsuneishi to Prof. Gitler.

CEAL STATISTICS 2009-2010 AN OVERVIEW

The Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL) Statistics is an annual publication of statistical data on East Asian libraries and museum collections in North America. The statistical data includes total volumes held (survey form 1), physical volumes added gross (form 2), printed and e- journal serial title count (form 3), other materials holdings (form 4), grand total library collection and backlog (form 5), fiscal support (form 6), staffing (form 7), public services (form 8), electronic resources (form 9), and e-books (form10). The CEAL Statistics online database is located at http://lib.ku.edu/ceal/php/ (note the address change since October 2010). CEAL Statistics reports and form instructions can be located at http://lib.ku.edu/ceal/stat/. The print version of the CEAL Statistics report is published in every February issue of the Journal of East Asian Libraries (JEAL). JEAL is archived by the Brigham Young University Digital Collection at http://www.lib.byu.edu/dlib/spc/jeal/

Dr. T. H. Tsien (Tsuen-Hsuin Tsien, Professor Emeritus, University of Chicago) led a series of systematic surveys of East Asian collection resources and published them from 1959 through the early 1980s. A bibliography has been compiled by the author of all published CEAL statistics from late 1950s to present at http://lib.ku.edu/ceal/PHP/STAT/citation.php Online CEAL statistical data collection began in 2001 with dissemination of data from 1999. Retrospective data from 1957 to 1998 was completed by 2008. Since then, the database includes more than 50 years of East Asia collection data with an average of 50 member libraries participating in the annual online survey.

Of the 50 participating member libraries in 2010, 47 are university libraries (43 US with 17 private and 26 public, and 4 Canadian), plus the Library of Congress, a museum, and a private research library. Among the 50 member libraries, 39 completed all forms. However, many of the 39 libraries filled only certain cells in the forms and left others. Nonetheless, CEAL statistics participating libraries and their survey table completion have been consistent in recent years. Five libraries did not fill out the Fiscal Support form. The form completed least is the E-book form, collected since 2008, with 18 libraries; then the E-resources form, collected since 2001, with 12 libraries not completing; and the Public Service form, collected since 1999 with nine libraries not completing. Participating libraries characteristics and forms completion are Appendix 1, and Appendix 2 respectively. The 2010 total CEAL collection, reported by 49 libraries, including e-books, was 22 million (22,027,449). This represents 6.42% growth from 2009, and 108% compared to year 1999 (Table 1). Without e-books, the total collection was 19.4 million (19,435,187), and represents a 3.30% growth from 2009 (also without e-books), and a 84.39% growth compared to year 1999 ( Table 2). This shows e-books have been added and/or subscribed rapidly by almost 30 CEAL libraries in recent years. In 2010, the total e-books collected or by subscription is about 2.6 million (2,592,262).

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Table 1 Total East Asian Collection with E-Books, 1999-2010

Table 2 Total East Asian Collection without E-Books, 1999-2010

Users of the CEAL statistics data should keep in mind that since the number of participating libraries varies from year to year, CEAL total collection may not show a positive growth rate each year. If data from all previous participating libraries were included, CEAL statistics would have 69 institutions from 1999 to 2010. With interpolated data, 2010 total collection with e- books (Table 3), is 23.6 million (23,563,205), or about 1.5 million (1,535,756) more than the 2010 participating libraries’ total. The growth rate (with e-books) is 123.55% compared to 1999 CEAL total collection size. Without e-books (Table 4), the total is 21 million (20,970,923), and 98.96% growth over 1999 collection size. With or without the interpolated data, the average growth is almost double the total collection size compared to 1999. Despite the economic downturn and reduced collection budgets, CEAL collections may still grow rapidly with e-book acquisition in this decade due to affordable cost, library space concerns,

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

reduced shipping and processing cost, and with e-book full-text search capability and multiple browsing possibilities.

Table 3 Total East Asian Collection with E-Books, 1999-2010 (Interpolated Data Applied)

Table 4 Total East Asian Collection without E-Books, 1999-2010 (Interpolated Data Applied)

Physical volumes still dominate the total collection at 83% (18,347,018), down from 87% in 2009. Total holdings of other materials is 5% (1,088,189) of the collection, up from 4% in 2009. E-books reported by 29 libraries in 2010 is 6.10% over 2009 (26 libraries), and has grown 58% more than the 2008 (21 libraries) initial data. Table 5 is the total CEAL collection by format. Table 6 is e-books collections from 2008 to 2010, 48% growth since 2009 or

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

845,866 volumes. In contrast, Table 7 shows monographs additions from 1999 to 2010 with the 2010 monographs growth of 1,575 volumes or 0.38% growth rate for CEAL collections.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Table 7 CEAL Monographs Additions, 1999-2010

By funding type, as shown in Table 8, 26 U.S. public universities held 38% of CEAL total collection; 17 U.S. private universities held 42%; 3 U.S. non-universities held a total of 14%; 4 Canadian universities held 6% of the CEAL total collection.

Table 8 2010 CEAL Total Collection by Funding Type

A total of 48 libraries reported holdings of 18,347,018 physical volumes by June 30 of 2010. Divided by language, included 9,797,700 Chinese (53%); 5,765,673 Japanese (32%); 1,352,059 Korean (7%); and 1,431,586 non-CJK language (8%) materials on China, Japan, Korea, and East Asia in English, Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan, Uyghur, and other languages (Table 9). The ratio between all languages is the same as 2009.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Table 9 2010 CEAL Total Physical Volumes by Language Total fiscal support for 45 reported libraries in 2010 was almost $17 million ($16,980,059) compared to 41 libraries reporting $11.47 million in 2000. 2010 fiscal support had a slight decrease of -0.02% to $16,980,059 for 45 libraries compared to 2009 at $16,982,714 for 47 reported libraries. The variable number of participating libraries each year causes the total sum to fluctuate for that year. For library collection data, the use of interpolated data can close up the gap of missing data; however, this does not apply to budget data. Table 10 shows CEAL fiscal support from 1999 to 2010. The total budget has increased 2.03% for academic institutions, not counting non-universities.

Table 10 CEAL Fiscal Support, 1999-2010

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Table 11 2010 CEAL Fiscal Support by Funding Type

Fiscal support in 2010 had 74% budget from parent institutions, 12% from endowments, 10% from grants, and about 4% from institutional program support (Table 11). Appropriations of the total budget went up 2% from 72% in 2009. Both private and public funded academic libraries experienced decreased grant funding. A -0.21% reduction occurred for private funded libraries, the 3rd consecutive year, and -22.53% reduction for public funded libraries, while public funded libraries also experienced a -1.8% in appropriations deduction compared to 2009, and -11.66% compared to 2006. Private academic libraries had 1.15% appropriations increase compared to 2009, and an increase of 36.63% compared to 2006.

The following four tables are the growth rates from 2006 to 2010 of CEAL fiscal support. They display appropriations (Table 12), grants (Table 13), endowments (Table 14), and East Asian program support (Table 15) as elements of total fiscal support.

Table 16 2010 CEAL Fiscal Support by Funding Type (45 Libraries $16,980,059)

Table 16 shows 16 reporting private U.S. academic libraries with a total of $9.34 million ($9,341,218.56) which accounted for about 55% of total reported CEAL fiscal support. Those private academic libraries have had moderate growth for the last three years, at 7% (2008), 2.61% (2009) and 5.38% (2010) respectively. Twenty two (22) reporting public funded U.S. university libraries had fiscal support of $5.89 million ($5,886,006.63), or 35% of CEAL total fiscal support, the same as last year though with two fewer libraries reporting in 2010. Unfortunately, they have had four consecutive years of budget reduction, at -0.72% (2007), - 4.67% (2008), -0.68% (2009), and -2.04% (2010). The three reporting U.S. non-university libraries had a total fiscal support of $0.87 million ($868,576) or 7% of CEAL total fiscal support. The museum and research libraries in this category doubled their budgets compared to 2008, but the Library of Congress reduced budgets in the last four years and a 30%

reduction in 2010. The U.S. non-university group budget growth rate was -10.3% (2007), - 38.53% (2008), -8.42% (2009), and -27.11% (2010) compared to the previous year. The four Canadian university libraries represented 5% of CEAL fiscal support with a total of $0.89 million ($868,576), or -3.67% compared to 2009. Concerning fiscal support by region, the greatest increase compared to last year was the Mountain region, with a 10.11% increase, followed by the Middle Atlantic region with 8.34% growth. All other regions had minimal increase or a decline in fiscal support. East North Central had a 0.94% increase, South Atlantic 0.75% increase, and West South Central, a 0.28% increase. New England had the most budget reduction at -6.77%, followed by West North Central region at -6.67%, the Pacific region at -4.46%, and the Canada region with a -3.6% decrease.

Table 17 2010 CEAL Personnel Support FTE

Forty-nine (49) collections reported a total of 419.26 full-time FTEs. This included 156.93 professionals (37%), 148.23 paraprofessional or clerical staff (35%), 60.98 student assistants (15%), and 53.99 others (13%) as shown in Table 17. Total FTEs decreased 9% in 2010 compared to 2009. Professional librarian FTEs decreased 33.6% (or 79.5 FTE) compared to two years ago in 2008. The decline from recent two years included many regular retirements, early retirements, position reductions (regular and student), and the trend of outsourcing (Table 18 and 19). Among 49 reporting libraries, 10 used outsourcing services; 5 for acquisitions and 8 for cataloging/processing. Three libraries outsourced both acquisitions and cataloging/processing.

As budgets decrease, the use of interlibrary loan (ILL) services increases. In 2010, 20 participating libraries’ lending filled numbers went up 25% from 17,659 (19 libraries) to 21,922. Access of electronic resources continues to increase vastly, while borrowing activities remain stable. Increasing lending requests made borrowing less than one quarter (22%) of lending activities. CEAL ILL transactions by 20 participating libraries had almost 5 to 1 ratio of lending to borrowing (Table 20). This proves the continuing need for returnable materials (books, bound journals, DVDs, microforms) for East Asian studies is still large and that users have been growing.

Table 20 CEAL Interlibrary Loan Services, 2005-2010

Electronic resources have grown rapidly, especially the e-books collections and subscriptions to full-text e-journal databases. The electronic resources database count does not accumulate from previous years. The number of database subscriptions is collected every year. For most libraries, e-books have perpetual online access or subscription access, similar to serial subscription. CEAL never adds serial subscription (title counts) to the total collection. Therefore, two grand total calculations are provided, one with e-books, and one without e- books. Concerning total electronic resources expenditures, each library’s reported figure may or may not include its centrally funded East Asian e-resources expenditures. Table 21 shows total e-resources expenditures reported by various libraries since 2001. For the past three years, electronic resources expenditures have grown steadily, at 13.31% (2008), 13.89% (2009), and 9.89% in 2010.

Table 21 CEAL E-Resources Expenditures, 2001-2010

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Data from reported CEAL libraries point to the following overall trends:

1. Monograph purchases have gone down. Monograph volumes purchased was about 16% of the e-books or e-book volumes purchased/accessed, which is about 6 times more than physical books. These included fewer printed serials bound volumes added to collections.

2. E-books and e-journals (full-text databases) have increased greatly. Many libraries have started purchasing e-books in recent years. The majority of e-books and e-journals are from China, followed by South Korea.

3. State funded academic libraries have continued budget cuts which include grant funding cuts. Private funded academic libraries have smaller budget reductions for materials. Total CEAL fiscal support has been going flat.

4. ILL borrowing has been steady, and lending has gone up. Large collection holdings have grown continuously, and medium to smaller size libraries have to depend more on ILL services.

5. Personnel support has gone down for the past several years, especially professional staff, which is down 33%, but outsourcing has gone up. About one-fifth of the libraries have outsourced library processing and some have outsourced acquisition.

Our sincere thanks to those 50 libraries that participated in the 2010 survey.

REPORT ON THE BYLAWS REVISION

During the CEAL meetings in 2010, the Executive Board (EB) recognized that the recent evolution of some EB positions made it necessary to reevaluate the adequacy of the Bylaws in terms of accommodating necessary changes. In June 2010, the Board appointed a Special Committee to Revise CEAL Bylaws, with the following members: Vickie Doll (Chair), Gail King, Philip Melzer, Hikaru Nakano, and Joy Kim (Ex-Officio). After working hard for several months, the Special Committee submitted its proposed revisions to the Executive Board, which recommended approval in November 2010. In the general vote that followed in December 2010, the CEAL membership overwhelmingly approved the changes, and the new Bylaws became effective as of January 1, 2011. This report was put together with input from various EB Members for archival purposes.

1. Summary of the Revisions

Substantive Changes

 Created a CEAL Publication Committee composed of Members-at-Large, with the JEAL Editor as Chair. The Publication Committee also forms the Editorial Board of JEAL and helps with peer review of JEAL which became a peer-reviewed journal in 2011.  Changed from Elected to Appointed Positions: Chair of the Committee on Library Technology; and Chair of the Membership Committee.  Clarifications and Added items: Definitions and responsibilities of Executive Board positions.  Name change: From “Nomination Committee” to “Election Committee”.  Correction of Error: Newly elected Board members begin their terms at the second EB meeting.

Changes in Style and Organization

 Reordered the document, using a more logical sequence and eliminating redundancies  Applied stylistic changes throughout the document to make the document more readable, easier to navigate and cite  To improve flexibility, more general, adaptable language has been used where appropriate, so as to address the evolving needs of the organization without the need for frequent revisions and amendments of the Bylaws.

2. Rationale for the Substantive Changes • Create a Publication Committee with JEAL Editor as the Chair

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

The intent behind this provision was to put in place a committee with Members-at-Large as its members to help with peer review of JEAL when it becomes a peer reviewed journal in 2011. Chaired by the JEAL Editor, the Publication Committee will also serve as the Editorial Board of JEAL.

• Make the Chairs of the Library Technology Committee and the Membership Committee appointed positions

The responsibilities of these two Chair positions require technical, procedural and logistical knowledge that is often enhanced by extended service, but the current Bylaws do not allow elected chairs to serve consecutive terms. The proposed changes would 1) Make these appointed rather than elected positions and 2) Allow re-appointments to multiple consecutive terms, subject to the Executive Board’s approval. This would give the Executive Board the option of reappointing individuals with proven qualities and performance records, following the current models of the CEAL Statistics Chair and the Editor of JEAL.

3. Rationale for the Stylistic Changes

The current Bylaws have gone through several amendments and revisions. Each change has introduced new language to the document without taking into account its impact on the document as a whole. This has affected the consistency of the document, and made the Bylaws difficult to read and interpret. For example, in the previous Bylaws, a few Executive Board positions had extensive descriptions, but most had no description at all. Differences in terminology, style, and treatment have worked their way into the document over the years. The revision addresses these issues in various ways, as described in the summary.

4. Results of the General Votes

The online ballot was designed in such a way that the voters could choose to vote either on the draft Bylaws as a whole (Option A), or voice their opinions on the major changes to the three committees individually (Option B, 1-3). The combination of both options constituted the total votes.

Total votes cast: 115 of 173 eligible voting members (response rate: 66%)

Option A: I support the EB's recommendation to accept the Bylaws as revised: 73 yes, 0 no (63% of votes cast)

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Option B: I support the EB's recommendation to accept the Bylaws as revised EXCEPT one or more of the following three major points. I will vote separately on those points below.

1. Creation of the Publication Committee: 41 yes, 1 no (Total yes: 114, 99 % of votes cast) 2. Change in the Technology Committee: 35 yes, 7 no (Total yes: 108, 94% of votes cast) 3. Change in the Membership Committee: 31 yes, 11 no (Total yes: 104, 90% of votes cast).

The Executive Board appreciates members’ support of this important endeavor. It is hoped that the flexibility inherent in the new Bylaws will serve the evolving needs of our organization for many years without frequent amendments. The new Bylaws have been published on CEAL’s website http://www.eastasianlib.org/CEAL/Bylaws/CEALbylaws.pdf, and are also printed in this issue of JEAL.

MEETING SUMMARY NORTH AMERICAN COORDINATING COUNCIL ON JAPANESE LIBRARY RESOURCES UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA LIBRARIES SPECIAL COLLECTIONS CONFERENCE ROOM C205 OCTOBER 23-24, 2009

Electronic versions of reports listed in Bold Italics are available on the NCC Website at URL: http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~ncc/minutes09october/minutes 09 march.html

Present: Tokiko Yamamoto Bazzell, NCC Chair; Keiko Yokota-Carter, NCC Chair-elect; Victoria Lyon Bestor, NCC Executive Director; council members Maureen Donovan, Ohio State University; Hitoshi Kamada, University of Arizona (meeting host); Dawn Lawson, New York University; Robin LeBlanc, Washington and Lee University; Laura Miller, Loyola University of Chicago, (NEAC representative); Haruko Nakamura, Yale University (Council on East Asian Libraries representative); Chiaki Sakai, University of Iowa; and Peter Young, Chief of the Asian Division Library of Congress (LC representative). Absent council members: Michael Bourdaghs, University of Chicago and Akio Yasue, Gakushuin University (Japan Liaison). Observers: Michael Brewer, University of Arizona Libraries; Ian Finnesey, Rapporteur, University of Arizona; Michiko Ito, University of Kansas; Lars Leon, University of Kansas; Margaret Mihori, Japan-US Friendship Commission; Tomoka Miyamoto, University of Arizona; and June Tateno, NetAdvance/JapanKnowledge.

Tokiko Bazzell welcomed the group and Hitoshi Kamada introduced his colleague Michael Brewer, who spoke briefly about University of Arizona Libraries strategies for “Staying Relevant in the 21st century.”

Reports from Funding Agencies:

Margaret Mihori gave the Japan-United States Friendship Commission report. Materials were distributed at the meeting. She noted that interest rates remain low and funding sources are increasingly feeling the impact of the economic downturn and high unemployment. The Commission has gone to one grant-making session, each September, with an August 1st deadline. The next CULCON plenary meeting will be June 10, 2010 at Library of Congress. The agenda is being drafted with a focus on Arts and Culture, and Education. A number of issues were discussed to bring to CULCON’s attention. An important problem noted is the extremely high costs of licenses for Japanese digital resources and the extent to which Japan is rapidly falling behind information providers from Korea and China, both of which are making their digital information cheaply and readily available to users abroad.

NCC noted that access to Japanese databases is very limited for scholars at smaller institutions and providing better access to Japanese information for those who are teaching undergraduates and training the next generation of Japan scholars seems to be in CULCON’s interest.

Japan Foundation no longer sends a representative or staff member to NCC meetings. All agreed that this creates problems with dissemination of information within the field.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

It was mentioned that Japan Foundation would support a conference at Berkeley with directors of major centers (essentially the Tanaka Ten institutions). Given Japan Foundation’s past assertion that they want to support the field more broadly especially in the South and Middle West it seems odd that they are meeting only with the major institutions. Scholars at smaller institutions fear this may only increase disparities in the field. Despite cutbacks the major institutions still have the strength and solvency to act independently and do not feel the need to collaborate with smaller institutions in their region or to participate in regional seminars, which are often the only professional venues for those at small institutions.

It was noted that NCC will have no Japan Foundation support during 2010-11. Japan Foundation explained to NCC that in the most recent preliminary round there were 59 applications for funding, 42 were not asked to apply in the final round (NCC among them). NCC was told to definitely reapply in the future and it was reitereated that JF knows NCC is doing important work. As evidence of that Japan Foundation advised all the 42 rejected applicant institutions to look to NCC for support because we are such a useful resource to the field.

Council members reviewed programs cuts already made; the number of NCC meetings has been cut to one per year, the administrative budget has been cut, more programs are piggybacked with others to optimize time and travel costs. During 2010-11, without JF funding, NCC will have to struggle to support its one meeting a year. One member suggested that perhaps NCC may have to hold its meetings in an airport hotel rather than on campus to conserve on travel and lodging expenses. That would eliminate on campus programs and the presence of faculty and student observers, and would reduce chances for NCC to get direct faculty feedback; therefore such a strategy should be a last resort.

Attendees also expressed concern about Japan Foundation’s future in the new Japanese government, and the major reviews of many government-funded projects through Jigyo Shiwake.

Reports of Representatives to NCC from Collaborating Organizations and Constituencies:

Peter Young gave the Library of Congress (LC) report. He was happy to report that LC has a budget this year rather than operating on a continuing appropriations basis, as has been the case in recent past. He noted that LC’s 2010 budget is secure, unlike many other libraries. A major problem is space. LC has offsite storage at Fort Meade, which will be sufficient for only another 3-5 years.

Given the declines in staffing among many other libraries it was asked if LC could provide more service offsite. Offsite access is not in LC's core mission and any changes in LC policy must come via Congress, Library of Congress does not make such decisions alone. However the copyright office’s requirement that electronic copies be available for onsite access may create opportunities for offsite access for open source material.

Peter Young noted that LC attends NCC so they can use information for collection development purposes. Therefore NCC is a forum that provides input from the field to help LC in determining their collection development policy. It was noted that the Asian Division acquired

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

the complete works of Osamu Tezuka (via a used book dealer), which is an important contribution to popular culture. However current publishing of manga is not happening in print, rather in born digital form. How will we in North America deal with digital pop culture? It is important for all parties to work together and there is need for a more systematic feedback loop for what is demanded by users.

The Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL) report was given by Haruko Nakamura. Future directions being considered by CEAL include a forum on library open access and organizational challenges and, possibly, a survey on collaboration for collection development.

A question was raised about how CEAL uses its funds and how in the future CEAL and NCC might collaborate more efficiently. There is discussion about possibly holding joint meetings at the 2011 CEAL meetings in Honolulu (NCC, CJM, CKM). NCC is unique because of its good communication with and representation of faculty on NCC. Therefore NCC plays an important role for CEAL in keeping faculty needs in the forefront. CEAL used to have faculty members and used to meet during AAS. That has become impossible due to tight AAS scheduling and competing faculty interests.

It was suggested that NCC organize another AAS panel for 2011, both because that timing makes NCC programs more available to scholars and the room expenses associated with programs on the formal AAS program are supported by the AAS budget.

Japan Liaison’s Report – (written report from Akio Yasue). Because of other commitments Akio Yasue, NCC’s Japan Liaison was unable to attend the meeting. Chair Tokiko Bazzell led the discussion of his report.

A major topic of discussion was the new law, “Management of Government Documents,” enacted in July 2009, to be implemented during the next two years. Major changes in the management of Japanese government documents and Japan’s archival system will result. NDL has responsibility to collect government documents through a depository system. The new law covers all levels of government from the national to the local level and gives NDL authority to do web archiving of documents without permission.

In addition, Japanese Copyright Law was also modified to allow NDL to digitize any Japanese publications for the purposes of preservation without permission of the copyright holder.

Masaya Takayama, named the director of National Archives, is a scholar and library professional who truly understands Archives. It is expected that under Mr. Takayama the Archive’s outreach role will be expanded, putting many more resources on the web. There were questions about the responsibilities and lines of reporting between NDL and the National Archives of Japan. NDL is under the Diet,the Archives under the Prime Minister’s office. Issues of the division of labor remain and thus far there has been little collaboration between NDL and the National Archives. It is hoped that this new leadership will improve the potential for collaboration.

Laura Miller, the NEAC representative, offered the report for the Northeast Asia Council of AAS

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

(2 documents). She reminded members that NEAC is part of the Association for Asian Studies (AAS) and manages a distinguished lecture series, as well as the John Whitney Hall Book Prize, which must be nominated by publishers. Better publicity is needed to encourage more presses to submit books for the Hall Prize. NEAC also administers grant funds for Japanese studies and is trying to clarify its grant guidelines to tighten application criteria. This round NEAC received 52 proposals for short term travel to Japan, 14 were funded. Short term grants are intended for brief trips for completing a project, and are not for starting new research.

To reiterate criteria for applications to NEAC she noted that applicants must be AAS members. NEAC plans to use Japan Foundation’s 2 month limit to define “short term” grants. NEAC’s definition of Japan-related research does not include Japanese-American studies. Grants are made in the form of reimbursement only. All expenses must be fully incurred upfront, original receipts must be submitted, and recipients should document other funding that matches that received from NEAC.

Recently proposed topics include Literature in Buddhism, teacher education, house building, writings on Christianity in Japan, political activism among women, the importance of liberal arts education, advertising, the sale and consumption of tobacco, Zainichi films, and the war crimes trials.

Other issues that have come up include proposals from people in other fields who need interpreters (asking grants to pay such fees); those that want to pay for human subjects (ethically problematic); providing more support to expand social science participation at AAS, especially political science and economics. With cuts being seen in faculty and staff funding to attend professional meetings it was noted that in such fields AAS is not the principal venue in which jobs are advertised and interviews done. Many younger scholars are attending disciplinary professional meetings and if they must make a choice may not be able to attend AAS. Increasingly it seems the core of Asian Studies is centering on history, literature and cultural studies.

NCC Council members thanked NEAC for funding travel of faculty and graduate students to attend the January 2009 Faculty Forum at Princeton. It was noted that, with declining travel funds for faculty, NEAC money made a dramatic difference in the number of those who could attend.

NCC Committee and Task Force Reports:

ILL/DD Committee co-chair Chiaki Sakai introduced Michiko Ito & Lars Leon of University of Kansas. Together they will succeed Chiaki and Amy Paulus as ILL/DD co-chairs in January 2010. The Council discussed strategies for expanding GIF and developing better ways to interface with the North American ILL community. Lars gave a brief summary of the “Rapid” inter-lending system. The committee is also committed to making better communications between OCLC and NII and to promote their meeting face-to-face.

In the absence of MVS Co-chair Michael Bourdaghs, Vickey Bestor reported on the MVS Committee. The MVS written report by Michael Bourdaghs and Sanae Isozumi was reviewed.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

With the end of Japan Foundation Library Support Grants, MVS is the only program that makes grants for Japanese studies collections. MVS is a model for distributed circulation of materials and annually accounts for more than $100,000 in collection development purchases. MVS now has a new fully online application process using PDF and word documents.

With the new decade, it is time for another periodic review of MVS. Previous recommendations included the searchable database and has led to expanded formats being included in MVS. The key question the MVS Committee asked the Council to discuss was whether MVS should do more to support smaller institutions or if NCC should consider re-allocating some or all MVS funding in light of growing needs for digital resources nationally. The 3-D Conference will provide further chances to evaluate MVS, and any change must be approved by the JUSFC.

This discussion was carried directly into the report by the Digital Resources Committee, given by Chair Dawn Lawson. Following up on themes discussed in the MVS discussion, a key focus of DRC discussion was on future strategies for dissemination of resources.

The Korean Collections Consortium’s (KCC) digital resources licensing project with the support of the Korea Foundation was an important example reviewed. It offers a huge package of resources via ekoreanstudies.com, containing virtually all major Korean databases in one package. The KCC was originally modeled after the NCC and has developed excellent collaboration with the Korea Foundation. The KCC project was begun with the vendors going to librarians find out how much libraries could pay and then negotiating on a yearly basis. The project has a tier pricing structure ranging from Group A – National Libraries – $17,000 per year, Group B – large programs consortia, Group C those with a full time Korean librarians, Group D with part time Korean librarians, down to Group E – those with just one Asian studies librarian, $5,800 year. The Korea Foundation covers 40% of licensing costs up to $5,800 per year. For example, NYU in Group E pays $3,000 for virtually every Korean publication, 11 databases, 5,000 ebook, well-referenced classic texts. There are 23 schools currently in the project. Reportedly Korea saw this effort as a public information opportunity of international import.

Members discussed how to encourage Japan to see the value of such a resource distribution strategy. Comments and questions included:

Is Japan guilty of “information hoarding?”

Is Japan losing an important public information race with China and Korea?

Japan is so strong in popular culture that's where soft power comes from. Don’t they realize that further dissemination of resources is a cheap way to keep Americans aware of Japan’s important role as a chief ally? This is especially important in undergraduate education. The new US ambassador to Japan is interested in software and the internet. How can the ambassador be engaged in these efforts?

Perhaps there should be an NCC white paper looking at the Korean model, perhaps with a title like “what if we did this with Japan?” Vendors need to know how many isolated

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

students there are. One member commented that it is surprising that Japanese publishers have not analyzed the market to this degree. Shouldn’t they have anticipated the extent to which this need is unmet?

It was noted that Japan’s publishing culture is still very conservative, often privately held, and still very print-oriented. That is why Japanese newspapers have not been more openly available to the US market. The major firms are the most conservative. Asahi needs to stop being so complacent about their position and realize that scholars are citing Yomiuri. Is there a way to quantify how much recent scholarship was driven by the fact that Yomiuri offered a free subscription for a week? Japanese newspapers need to be broadly available through consolidators like LexisNexis.

As a further part of the Digital Resources Committee’s discussion Dawn Lawson demonstrated some of the LibGuides she has developed. Coordinating the development of such vehicles may be a ways for NCC to help create and promote a comprehensive series of online instructional materials to be contained or linked from the NCC Website. Such formats could offer a menu of options for licenses. It was pointed out that to be fully available to all potential users materials must be user-friendly, especially by those without specialist librarians. There may be a useful role for NCC in coordinating such a project, which will also avoid duplication of efforts and the promote the creation of comprehensive materials.

Hitoshi Kamada briefly reported on the Librarian Professional Development Committee (LPDC). In this economic environment there is little money for professional development, therefore the LPDC is creating a list of available training options and publishing it on the NCC website. LPDC is also starting a blog for junior Japan studies librarians to exchange training opinions. Also available online is Sachie Noguchi’s Report on Tenri Workshops completed June 2009, as well as links to websites developed in relation to the Tenri Workshops. The LPDC will also host links to the Tenri trainee’s site known as OJAMASG, http://www.jlgweb.org.uk/ojamasg/introduction.html.

The written reports of the Japan Art Catalog Project (JAC) were reviewed. It was noted that Mariko Shiratori reported that the Freer Gallery might want to limit the catalogs it received to contemporary art. This may provide the opportunity for creating a third JAC collection in the US focused on pre-contemporary Asian Art. The Council discussed what procedures it should undertake to solicit proposals from institutions that might want to hold that collection. First it must be determined what Freer regards as “contemporary” and also whether Freer wants to continue to hold its pre-contemporary catalogs or would they want to send them to the new location for a pre-contemporary collection. Vickey will speak with Reiko Yoshimura, Curator of the JAC Asian Collection, and find out Freer’s specific goals and further discuss things with NACT.

Friday, October 23, 2009, 2009: Afternoon Session (1:00 to 4:30)

Professor Philip Gabriel, Director of East Asian program at University of Arizona, welcomed the NCC and apologized for being unable to attend due to other obligations in connection with the Western Conference on Asian Studies (WCAAS).

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

NCC Reports on Major Recent Projects

In the absence of Akio Yasue, the IUP Co-Chair the report on the IUP project was given jointly by Tokiko Bazzell and Victoria Bestor. The Image Use Protocol Website, competed in April 2009, has become a very popular and well-used site.

The first of a series of IUP Workshops was given at the 2009 AAS to a capacity audience. Subsequently workshops have been given at University of Maryland in April 2009 in conjunction with the 30th Anniversary of the Gordon W. Prange Collection. International IUP Workshops were also given in Sydney, Austraila at the Japanese Studies Association of Australia (JSAA, July 2009) and at the European Association of Japanese Resources Specialists at the Sainsbury Institute of Japanese Culture in Norwich, England (EAJRS, September 2009). Future workshops are planned for Toronto (January 2010) and in Hawaii in the spring.

Tokiko Bazzell also discussed the creation of an IUP Workshop tool kit which incorporates Powerpoint slides and outlines how individual workshops can be tailored to an institution’s needs. Written reports on IUP from Eiko Sakaguchi on JSAA, Izumi Koide on EARJS and on 2009-10 Workshops Planned, are on the NCC Website.

NCC Administrative Reports:

Tokiko Bazzell made her final report as NCC Chair. Funding is NCC’s continuous challenge and takes up an increasing amount of staff time, further limiting that which can be spent on program activities. There is some hope for new sources in Japan. Perhaps there will be future opportunities presented by the National Archives of Japan and the recently founded Toshokan Shinko Zaidan, which especially aims to develop foreign training opportunities for Japanese librarians. Unfortunately their funding profile does not exactly fit what NCC currently does. NCC was encouraged to apply, and did apply for funds to bring people from Japan for 3D conference, but that request was not funded.

NCC must also continue to work on deepening relationships with organizations with larger funding including new Zaidan and private funders (Kodansha, etc.), as well as the Nippon Foundation.

Tokiko Bazzell and Keiko Yokota-Carter reported briefly on the recent electronic elections of NCC Council members. Those elected were Michiko Ito to be ILL/DD Co-chair beginning January 1, 2010, and Fabiano Rocha and Setsuko Noguchi, whose terms begin July 1, 2010.

Given the timing of the upcoming NCC 3-D Conference in March 2010, it was agreed that publication of Annual Newsletter # 23 would be delayed and new formats will be explored. Online publication may become the primary means of dissemination, with only a small paper print run in the future.

Vickey Bestor gave the Executive Director’s Administrative Reports, including that on the close of FY 2008-09, and projections for the coming year. During 2008-09 NCC received excellent support for the IUP project and Conference, and for 2009-10 generous support has been

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

received for 3-D. However for the 2010-11 fiscal year the budget will be extremely tight and additional measure will need to be taken to hold NCC’s now once-yearly Council meeting. Suggestions included requiring all members to use double occupancy rooms and possibly to hold meetings in an airport hotel. Chief support was acknowledged from the Japan US Friendship Commission. The Japan Foundation was the second largest funder of 2008-09 followed by Toshiba International Foundation, the Reischauer Institute at Harvard, University of Toronto Libraries and others. During 2009-10 JUSFC continues to be the lead funder with both general program support and principal support for the 3-D Conference. Japan Foundation will complete its IUP funding in 2009-10 and no JF funding will be received in 2010- 11. Other 2009-10 support comes from Toshiba International Foundation, Northeast Asian Council of the AAS, and the University of Pennsylvania Library and Center for East Asian Studies.

Special Planning Session on 3-D Conference (in two parts),

The discussion began with a effort to clearly articulate the goals of 3-D and to fully understanding the product(s) which must come from 3-D. A list of action items needs to be produced, with a clear timeline coming out of the conference, related both to the development of funding proposals and program implementation over the next few years. Decisions about future directions of the NCC must be informed by recommendations made at 3-D.

Key questions that the Council must reflect upon include: What is/are NCC's distinctive competence(s) at the end of its first 20 years? What happens if we reinvent NCC? How do we focus on keeping things manageable? How do we do the most in a time of scarcity?

3-D is an important opportunity for NCC to market its services. It is vital to involve more faculty and international participants. NCC is the repository of a massive amount of highly specialized knowledge that faculty need. 3-D has the opportunity to generate the very high energy, positive climate that the IUP Workshop at AAS had. Faculty should go home saying, “Man those librarians really know what they're doing.” Council members noted the important model of the IUP Conference in Tokyo, which was an occasion for open and frank discussion in which the group came to realized the depth of miscommunication that exists. More must be done to help people realize the outreach and communications potential of the NCC, and the IUP example must be kept in mind.

Peter Young’s role as facilitator will be to lead a discussion that takes the products of the break out discussions and synthesizes them into concrete recommendations that constitute an action agenda. From these activities, recommendations for actions must be made as concretely as possible. Concluding discussions on 3-D were deferred until Saturday morning.

The day ended with discussion of recommendations for the new Japan Liaison position to replace Akio Yasue when his term concludes in June 2010. Qualifications were discussed: it must be someone who knows the Japanese library world well and who speaks excellent English to be able to fully participate and report. The recommendations received from previous Japan

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

liaisons were discussed. The Council discussed the range of possible candidates to succeed Akio Yasue and approved a ranked short list. Final discussions with candidates will be delegated to Mr. Yasue and Keiko Yokota-Carter during her trip to Japan. The next Japan Liaison takes office on July 1, 2010 and it would be ideal if that candidate could attend the 3-D Conference.

Saturday Morning Session, 9-1 pm.

Discussion of the content and format of the 3-D Conference continued. It was agreed that 75% of the program should be breakout sessions. Those should include both “propositions” with action questions to be discussed and “best practices” sessions, which will offer specific training or examples of best practices that can be “taken away” by participants.

It was agreed that the program should begin with a session with a range of faculty by rank, discipline, and institutional size. It is very important for more faculty to attend 3-D, but many will not have the funds. A grant to support such travel is before NEAC (and was subsequently funded).

A session with National Librarians (Makoto Nagao and Deanna Marcum) moderated by Patricia Steinhoff was also planned for the first morning.

The remaining 75% of the conference will be focused around six sessions, which reflect critical issues that NCC must address and important trends in the field that require the review or update of relevant “best practices.” These must include sessions that focus on additional ways to deepen librarian-faculty collaborations that make use of the continued growth of interdisciplinary resources for undergraduates. New technologies both for preserving and revealing collections, and for social networking were also identified as critical areas.

The 3-D planning group and members of the NCC Executive Committee will formulate the final program over the coming weeks.

New Business, Future Meetings, Projects and Discussion Items:

A brief discussion was held about the Second Faculty Forum in connection with the Western Conference of the AAS. Programs in conjunction with regional AAS meetings simply do not attract many people. Trying to piggyback NCC’s meeting onto a regional AAS meeting was suggested by the Japan Foundation. However, faculty attending the conference were unable to attend a program before the WCAS began because of teaching, and during the conference they were committed to attending other programs. It was suggested that NCC propose programs for the AAS 2011 program (for which the deadline is early August 2010). One topic that was suggested was something on licensing coming out of the 3-D Conference.

Discussion of location, dates and agenda planning for the Fall 2010 Council Meeting took place. The NCC is looking at the University of Chicago. Members advised against a summer meeting because libraries are increasingly requiring librarians to take their full vacations at that time and there may be additional furloughs added at that time. Further email discussions will decide

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

the date.

Retiring Chair Tokiko Y. Bazzell made comments and reflected on her term.

Tokiko noted that her predecessor, Toshie Marra, challenged NCC to continue to increase fund- raise to support NCC services. Toshie advised that it would get more challenging, and she has been right. NCC has worked hard to cultivate other funding sources and to investigate new funding organizations during the past three years. NCC has met with success in supporting the IUP project, in funding the 3-D Conference, and in beginning to cultivate new donors.

However, to continue to succeed it is necessary for NCC to cement its operational infrastructure. There are two main issues that must be resolved; one is to determine what primary focus of the Executive Director’s work should be: Should the number one focus be programmatic or administrative (including fund-raising)? If it is programmatic, how can administrative needs be handled? If it is administrative, how and by whom will NCC programs be managed?

Tokiko also spoke of the essential support that a chair must receive from their home institution. When she became chair UH gave her a 15 hour-per-week assistant. Most of her work for NCC was done on nights and weekends. The role of the chair is a big one and continues to expand with NCC programs.

Similarly, the Executive Director’s duties have expanded far beyond the half-time position currently funded. NCC and Japanese studies have benefited from the Executive Director’s extra work, which has made it possible for NCC to accomplish more goals, faster. NCC has also benefitted from that institutional continuity for more than a decade now. The status quo, however, is unfair to the executive director, and is not sustainable. This must change in the future. At the 3-D Conference no doubt important and ambitious projects will be identified. NCC can continue to lead in those projects only if its infrastructure is secured and its personnel expanded.

On behalf of NCC council members Chair-elect Keiko Yokota Carter thanked Tokiko for her great leadership during a term with two major conferences: one to solve the problem of online newspapers and the other on Image Use. Tokiko was presented with a small token of appreciation from the NCC for her dedication, a pin selected especially for her by Keiko Yokota Carter.

University of Arizona Libraries and the Department of East Asian Studies, University of Arizona hosted these meetings.

Travel and accommodations for Council Members are supported by grants from The Japan US Friendship Commission and the Japan Foundation (observers listed in italics)

NCC’S THIRD DECADE (3-D) CONFERENCE REPORT TO JEAL

NCC’s two-day once-in-a-decade conference took place at the University of Pennsylvania on March 22-23, 2010 directly prior to the Association for Asian Studies Annual Meeting. The 3-D (Third Decade) Conference was a parallel to that held by NCC in March 2000. The 3-D Conference has provided NCC with a roadmap for services through the year 2020, similar to the way that Year 2000 recommendations have guided our programs for the last decade (2000-2010).

The 3-D Conference brought together 115 international participants to discuss the changing library and information needs of the field of Japanese studies worldwide and to make recommendation to the NCC for programs and services to be created or expanded to better underpin the needs of faculty, students and the general public interested in Japan. Given the global economic crisis that began in 2008, discussions at 3-D were especially focused on ways that collaborative strategies can be deepened and new Internet-based services can be created to provide more freely available reference services to all those interested in Japan.

Keynote speakers at the 3-D Conference were Makoto Nagao, National Diet Librarian of Japan (speaking via video) and Deanna Marcum, Associate Librarian of Congress. A faculty panel discussed changing needs for scholarly information and examined the challenges faculty in various disciplines and from different types of institutions face in locating the resources they need for teaching, research and publications. Faculty speakers included Doug Slaymaker of the University of Kentucky, Kyle Ikeda of the University of Vermont, Julie Davis of the University of Pennsylvania, and A. Maria Toyoda of Villanova University.

Using a small-group breakout format the 3-D Conference engaged participants in detailed discussions of six important topics related to the changing knowledge needs of Japan scholars. These were divided into propositions to be discussed by attendees with recommendations made to NCC, and sessions that focused on developing best practices for librarians to adopt to make their collections and services more broadly available to users everywhere.

The Proposition #1 session led by Dawn Lawson, East Asian Librarian of NYU focused on the expanding range of Japanese digital resources and the difficulty with which foreign users, especially those at smaller and less well endowed institutions, have in gaining subscriptions to many such resources. To date, digital resource licenses have been largely held by the major research libraries most active in Japanese studies, leaving the vast majority of potential users without access. Shrinking budgets have made affording corporate-priced digital resource licenses increasingly difficult even for major institutions, and simultaneously the costs of research travel to Japan have become increasingly prohibitive.

Broadening access to new users and preserving what many currently enjoy will require negotiations with database creators, a more varied range of licensing options, and consortial/quasi-consortial arrangements. The 3-D Conference produced a strong consensus on the need for a “national” strategy for digital licensing for Japanese databases (similar to that existing for Korean databases). NCC was encouraged to be one of the central institutions

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011 facilitating that strategy with NCC possibly providing an “umbrella” for such services and a source for the online instruction and advice needed by many users. It was universally acknowledged that such an undertaking would require greater staff and infrastructure than the NCC currently possesses, and the implementation of such a strategy would require extensive buy-in by stakeholders in the US and Japan. A multi-year timeline will be required and considerable new fund-raising would be needed. The matter was referred to NCC’s governing council for further discussion, which (at its September 2010 Meeting) recommended that NCC work with Japanese database creators and publishers to advocate for a change in the business model according to which digital resources are made available to academic users. The NCC Council designated that project to be a top funding priority for the NCC and a major focus of a just-completed application to the Japan Foundation-Center for Global Partnership. It will be a centerpiece in future funding proposals, including those to the Japan-US Friendship Commission.

Best Practices #1, led by Kuniko Yamada McVey Librarian of the Japanese Collection at the Harvard-Yenching Library highlighted seven distinctive collections from the perspective of actual and potential users to ask the following question: What can be done with these collections — individually, collectively, virtually — to enable these assets to serve new dynamic uses, in which scholars and others can make use of these collections in productive new ways?

Taking as its cue Clifford Lynch’s assertion that “Special collections are a nexus where technology and content are meeting to advance scholarship in extraordinary new ways,”1 discussions focused on new technologies and strategies for bringing important images in our collections to wider audiences, especially students and those who may not read Japanese fluently.

Discussion raised these further questions: In making previously hidden visual images available online are there new strategies for collective cataloging that are productively being employed? How can a new understanding of the best practices for such efforts be articulated and broadly disseminated?

There is a growing consensus that it is better to upload images to the web first and develop the cataloging records thereafter, allowing people to contribute to the records. The Library of Congress’s successful project mounting visual images on Flickr allowing individuals to freely tag images was noted as one interesting example.

Outlining appropriate uses of media for outreach to undergraduates was also noted as an important use of tagging capabilities. Professor Patricia Steinhoff stressed the need for more English annotations in the bibliographical records so that users who do not read Japanese fluently can find the materials more easily. She cited the example of University of Hawaii’s Takazawa Collection website (http://www.takazawa.hawaii.edu/default.aspx), which has such

1 http://www.arl.org/resources/pubs/fallforumproceedings/forum09proceedings.shtml

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011 annotations. It was also mentioned that some libraries now have tagging features that can indicate the level of Japanese language proficiency required by each resource.

The Proposition # 2 breakout session, led by Sharon Domier of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, focused on changing information literacy needs of diverse groups of faculty, students and the general public. One of NCC’s principal mandates is to focus on the needs of faculty and student users of Japanese and Japan-related information and to facilitate access to resources for such users. To broaden discussions about the various contexts in which faculty and students must be information literate, this session was broken into five discussion topics, each of which focused on a specific group of users and the information they need. Those groups were language learners at all levels of study; students planning to study abroad in Japan; young researchers and graduate students just getting started on a research project and needing to learn about the kinds of resources available to them in libraries and digitally; midcareer scholars and senior faculty who need to learn about new sources of information and to become adept users of digital resources; and Japanese scholars and students coming to teach or do research overseas.

Recommendations to NCC were principally for services that might be housed on NCC’s expanded Website and fell largely into two categories: 1) strategies, methods, and venues for user-training instruction, including recommended expansion to NCC’s online tutorials and information literacy instruction materials; and 2) strategies for beefing up the Information Literacy Components of NCC Website’s to make it a true clearinghouse for information on Japan.

Best Practices #2 “The Well Connected Librarian, Managing the Tools for Optimal Engagement” organized by Maureen Donovan made recommendations focused on future expansion of NCC’s Website, and highlighted additional Web 2.0 projects in Japan and elsewhere in the field. The use of Twitter and Blogging are two examples of social networking technologies that can be harnessed to help us be more effective in building long-distance collaborations and in sharing our resources more effectively. Makoto Okamoto, President/Producer, Academic Resource Guide, Inc. spoke on Recent Trends from Japan for Mastering the Art of Connecting in Today’s Global Society, including the rapid rise in the use of Twitter and media such as USTREAM, which was used to upload reports on the 3-D Conference for access to users in Japan enabling them to track and comment on the conference in real- time. The session concluded with a presentation from Tao Yang, East Asian Studies Librarian, Rutgers University entitled “Open Access, the Deep Web, and Online Collaborations in East Asian Studies; The FOREAST Experience” focused on the Web 2.0 project promoting open access to East Asian Studies data using a blog platform and Google as a collaboration tool. There is tremendous potential for free and open access to scholarly resources on the web; however, often freely available information is difficult for users to locate because of the limitations of browsers and the difficulties of delving into the Deep Web. FOREAST (www.foreast.org) is working to facilitate discovery and use of open access resources using Web 2.0 technologies - blogging, tagging, and social bookmarking.

Proposition #3 led by Toshie Marra, Japanese Studies Librarian at UCLA, reviewed existing NCC services and made recommendations about their future, featuring three separate

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011 discussions, one each that focused on the Multi-Volume Sets Project and cooperative collection development, on interlibrary loan and document delivery and the Global ILL Framework (GIF), and a third that enlisted recommendations about ways NCC can further expand its collaborations with organizations abroad and serve as a more vocal advocate for the needs of Japanese library and information resources.

Subtopic #1: Cooperative Collection Development: Facilitators Michael Bourdaghs Professor of East Asian Cultures, University of Chicago and Sanae Isozumi, Japanese Studies Librarian University of California, San Diego, outlined the history of the Multi-Volume Set Project (MVS), which is NCC’s oldest program, established in 1992. MVS was created to leverage scarce funds for the purchase of Japanese language materials not otherwise held in North America. The cooperatively developed MVS Collection now circulates from over 30 institutions throughout the US.

The cost of Multi-Volume Sets of Japanese resources means that few smaller libraries have been able to apply. Additionally, the current economic climate has made it difficult for a growing number of institutions who have traditionally been regular MVS applicants to apply.

Participants were tasked with reviewing MVS after nearly 20 years and recommending whether or not MVS is working in the present format.

Discussants expressed the view that fundamental shifts have occurred, as seen in the transition from the dominance of print to digital formats, requiring an overall rethinking of cooperative collection development strategies, including MVS. Participants strongly expressed the view that NCC is in the position to take the lead in helping to transform notions of cooperative collection development from print to digital (national licensing and/or mass digitization projects). Participants also expressed the view that there should be renewed national and regional coordination of cooperative collection development (in all formats).

Specific comments about MVS and the possible alternative uses of MVS funding were:

 The gap between large and small libraries has widened, and if MVS continues, a two-tiered program with separate categories for large and small libraries should be adopted (That has been done).  A lower cost-share percentage should be reconsidered for smaller institutions. (Also done).  Because there is no longer funding for basic materials perhaps a portion of MVS funds should be allocated for more basic/reference sets.  A number of participants recommended that if JUSFC permits, MVS funds should eventually be re-purposed to digital licensing. However, such a program would require a long lead- time for planning and implementation during which time MVS should continue with only minor modifications.  Digital resource licensing makes sense as a cooperative collection development priority because small libraries cannot afford digital licenses, nor can they afford to apply to MVS.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

 Digital resources (compared to traditional formats including print, microfilm and VHS) would better fit a national/cooperative collection development program because recent technology makes it possible for digital resources to be more widely available to multiple libraries and researchers. (However, despite the technical feasibility of such levels of sharing, most providers do not currently allow broad distribution under their contract terms).  NCC should further explore ways of coordinating Japanese library resource and collection development efforts with the Center for Research Libraries (CRL) and the Library of Congress (LC).

Strategies for National Database Licensing: (also discussed in Proposition # 1)  The Korean Collections Consortium (which was originally patterned after NCC) developed a system of subscriptions for Korean databases in the US and Canada. The KCC system negotiates subscription prices for participating libraries by size, funding up to 40% of subscription costs. NCC should consider this model, which would especially benefit smaller libraries, for Japanese database subscriptions,.  If NCC negotiated a national licensing strategy for Japanese databases it would provide a model useful to subscribers everywhere.  It was suggested that NCC serve as the umbrella to assist libraries in forming a consortium for database subscription.  It was pointed out that Canadian libraries are not allowed to apply for MVS because all the funds come from US government sources. However, Canadian libraries have adapted the KCC plan, and there are already Japanese database consortia in Europe, all of which may benefit from an umbrella licensing strategy.  An entirely different project that was suggested was to consider re-purposing some portion of MVS funds to digitizing existing Japanese materials/resources housed in the North American libraries to make them freely available to researchers and students online.

Subtopic #2: International strategies for resource sharing and the Global ILL Framework (GIF):

Michiko Ito, Japanese Studies Librarian at University of Kansas and NCC ILL/DD Committee co- chair, facilitated the session. The Global ILL Framework (GIF) was formed to support Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery (ILL/DD) services between North American and Japanese academic libraries and now has nearly 240 institutional members. In addition to GIF ILL services, Waseda and Keio Universities and the National Diet Library all offer ILL/DD services. 3-D Conference participants were asked to review GIF services and to recommend improvements to the management teams on both sides. Discussions focused particularly on: education for current and potential users of GIF; expanded support services for ILL staff (especially those without Japanese language fluency); and strategies for more broadly promoting GIF services and expanding its membership. Possible ways that the GIF network might work to strengthen general communications and collaborations with Japanese libraries and to facilitate reciprocal borrowing were discussed more fully in the section on promoting international collaboration, directly below.

Subtopic #3: Recommendations for improving international cooperation and resource sharing

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

The session, facilitated by Akio Yasue, former librarian National Diet Library and past NCC Japan Liaison, addressed the following questions: In what new areas should NCC work with counterpart organizations? What roles should NCC play more actively? How can the US and Japan more effectively streamline communication? How can both sides collaborate to seek institutional support and outright funding to improve international cooperation and resource sharing?

Recommendations of the session including deepening collaboration to better promote reciprocal onsite access to academic libraries for foreign scholars; creating a directory of Japanese academic libraries, archives and think tanks on the NCC Website; expanding NCC’s global networks to deepen collaborative resource development, including the joint creation of e-learning materials; promoting broader opportunities for librarian exchanges; and creating a directory of digital collections and projects. (Also discussed in Best Practices #1)

Haruko Nakamura Librarian of the Japanese Collection at Yale University and Professor Susanna Fessler University of Albany jointly led the Best Practices #3 session. The session addressed ways that faculty and librarians can better collaborate to benefit undergraduates. Recognizing that the majority of undergraduates interested in Japan come to the subject with limited Japanese language skills, this session addressed ways that faculty and librarians can nurture that interest in Japan and strongly encourage the support and creation of quality information on Japan in languages other than Japanese to deepen student’s knowledge of Japan and allow them to carry out research projects of some depth and sophistication.

The twin goals of this session were: To identify exemplary resources, both print and online, that students can use for English-language research on Japan, and To share successful examples that will help to develop methods of bibliographic instruction that engage students with Japanese books and assist them in finding and evaluating non-Japanese language resources on Japan. To that end Haruko Nakamura allowed participants to preview the Website she is creating to index Japanese resources available in English.

Discussants noted the extreme difficulty individual faculty face in keeping up to date on developing resources. There are so many sources that all must work together to make one another aware of newly developed resources. Ideally, there should be some coordination and collaboration among libraries to avoid the duplication of efforts and to comprehensively uncover all appropriate resources, many of which are not explicitly aimed at a Japanese studies audience. By finding ways to share the burden we can better learn from each other.

Professor Fessler discussed some classroom challenges she has encountered in teaching her undergraduate Japanese bibliography course:

1) Undergraduates are generally terrified of Japanese, 2) Faculty do not always cooperate with library staff to offer a seamless experience, 3) Students don’t see the library as a place to find knowledge (but as a place to study), 4) Students are increasingly unaware of print materials and may not even understand the difference between an index and a table of contents, for example. [Follow-up note: in her

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011 spring 2010 bibliography course, Professor Fessler had one student comment in an annotated bibliography that a book was “unusual” because it had footnotes at the end of every chapter, “unlike most books.” This shows an increasing unawareness of print formats that we can probably expect to continue.]

To respond to these challenges, Professor Fessler suggests that librarians 1) collaborate with faculty to structure bibliography courses, 2) get known as the Japanese reference person among students, 3) pull a parlor trick or two to make them respect you and come back for more, 4) walk a fine line between pandering and slave driving, and if the librarian is not a non- native speaker, 5) find a non-native speaker to serve as a role model to help students overcome their language-learning fears.

Professor Fessler emphasized the need for librarians to hold bibliography courses at small institutions and for undergraduate students. She noted that at many institutions a bibliography course that involves some language components might qualify as a credit course at the undergraduate level. As an example, professor Fessler shared the course syllabus and materials she used for one of her bibliography courses (http://www.albany.edu/eas/EAJ205/).

Peter Young, Chief of the Asian Division of the Library of Congress acted as facilitator for the wrap-up sessions on both days of the 3-D Conference. Detailed summaries of each session of the 3-D conference are contained on the 3-D Website at http://www.nccjapan.org/3DConference/index.html.

Not only do NCC’s once-in-a-decade conferences lay the groundwork for new programs, they have also been important opportunities for NCC to reach out to its constituencies, to seek their advice, and to enlist their collaboration for new initiatives for the next decade. The coming decade will demand that NCC and all organizations in the field of Japanese studies devise strategies that leverage increasingly scarce funding and that make increasing use of new Internet-based technologies. The coming decade must also be one of transformation for the NCC. In the next decade NCC must fortify its infrastructure, make provisions for a permanent staff, and secure new funding. The March 2010 3-D conference was a resounding success. NCC is now poised to undertake a number of major new projects, has already begun implementing 3-D Conference recommendations, and has begun fund-raising to enable NCC to implement 3-D recommendations.

MEETING SUMMARY NORTH AMERICAN COORDINATING COUNCIL ON JAPANESE LIBRARY RESOURCES UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LIBRARIES REGENSTEIN LIBRARY, JRL 207 September 17-18, 2010

Electronic versions of distributed reports are linked from the NCC Website http://www.nccjapan.org

Present were: Keiko Yokota-Carter, NCC Chair (University of Washington), Victoria Bestor, NCC Executive Director (Harvard University), Council Members: Michael Bourdaghs (University of Chicago), Ken Ito (University of Michigan), Michiko Ito (University of Kansas), Dawn Lawson (New York University), Patricia Maclachlan (University of Texas, Austin), Setsuko Noguchi Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC), Fabiano Rocha (University of Toronto), Peter Young (Library of Congress). Observers were: Sarah Arehart, (University of Chicago), Yukiko Menda (Japanese Consulate General of Chicago), Margaret Mihori (JUSFC), Eizaburo Okuizumi (University of Chicago), and Sem Sutter, (University of Chicago).

Keiko Yokota-Carter, NCC Chair, and Sem Sutter, Associate Director for Collections, University of Chicago Libraries, made Welcoming Remarks.

Reports from Funding Agencies, Organizational Representatives, NCC Committees and Task Forces:

Margaret Mihori reported on behalf of the Japan-United States Friendship Commission and CULCON. The CULCON Joint Statement was distributed to members prior to the meeting. In addition she reported that a CULCON Symposium will take place in Washington DC on May 4, 2011 with the theme “Building US-Japan Smart Power.” One of the major sessions will be on education as an economic issue. Members suggested Associate Librarian of Congress Deanna Marcum as an excellent speaker on that subject. There will be invited speakers from both the US and Japan.

She also reported that the annual JUSFC Meeting had taken place on September 14th and that the JUSFC budget will be even tighter than usual during 2011. The JUSFC granted NCC’s request to revise MVS guidelines to allow for a two-tiered system that allows up to 40% of MVS funds to be used by smaller institutions with a lower cost-share of 20% (those with an annual Japanese materials budget of under $10,000). All other terms of MVS will remain as they have been. NCC will advertise this new option for the current grant year; however it was noted that announcements for MVS have already gone out and the printed announcement in the AAS Newsletter will not carry this new provision. Updated notices will be sent to all the online lists.

NCC is scheduled to next apply to JUSFC in 2011 for a three-year grant for 2012-13, 13-14 and 14-15 and was encouraged to think strategically about every aspect of the budget. Margaret concluded by announcing that Eric Gangloff’s official retirement date is scheduled for June 30, 2011. There will be a reception at the AAS on Saturday, April 2, 2011.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Discussion of the Japan Foundation and Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership was deferred until later in the meeting.

Ken Ito reported on behalf of the Northeast Asia Council (NEAC) of the AAS. Funding continues to be very tight and there are many more worthy projects than can be funded. NCC thanked NEAC for its recent funding to support faculty and graduate student participation in the Third Decade (3-D) Conference.

Peter Young gave the Library of Congress (LC) Report, which highlighted a number of key accomplishments since the last meeting. A meeting of the World Digital Library, in collaboration with UNESCO, was held at LC in June; of the 94 partner organizations, representatives from 60-70 countries participated. LC is the primary agency supporting the WDL’s organizing committee. Its Website contains world cultural treasures in digital form functioning in six languages. The site has a huge number of partners and hits, with dramatic increases in usage.

The Fifth China-North American Library Conference took place in Beijing September 8-12, 2010, with the theme of sharing digital resources. Held at the National Library of China, it was planned by a coordinating group that met monthly beginning in January via conference call. The conference was attended by 125, 54 from North America. NCC discussed that conference as a model for US/North American—Japanese institutions, or regionally between North America and East Asia. NCC has been planning to hold a major international library conference in Japan (probably in 2012) and further study should be made of the China-North American model.

LC is working on an expanded array of cooperative digitization projects on Japan. The National Diet Library is interested in digitizing core content from captured “enemy” documentation brought to the US after the end of WWII. A year of negotiation and a memorandum of understanding have resulted in an agreement for which Internet Archive will serve as the contractor.

Among LC’s major recent public lectures and exhibits was the 150th anniversary of the 1860 diplomatic visit of 77 samurai, the first Japanese delegation to visit the US. The celebration featured material currently in LC’s collection and was seen by a sell-out crowd. A major upcoming event will be the Sept 21st celebration of the Japanese collections at LC past, present, & future symposium, honoring collections built since the early 1900s.

LC is urging Congress to fund additional storage at Fort Meade. LC needs a $14M appropriation for construction; LC’s stacks are current 110% full, containing over 148 million items.

LC’s leadership in digital archiving has recently taken on the challenge of developing the “Twitter Archive” acquired in April 2010. A planning committee is working to determine issues such as where the Twitter Archive “lives,” how it is updated, and how it will be made available to users. Discussion focused on the Twitter Archive and its usefulness for social

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

science and data tracking. There are also drawbacks to using the Twitter Archive for research because much of Twitter’s traffic is in the form of shortened URLs that would lose content without full reference to Internet sources. This collection prompts new thoughts on curation and stewardship (providing access and context) vs. preservation (merely saving the data), challenging traditional concepts of library information management.

The Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL) report was given by Haruko Nakamura. At the coming CEAL meeting in March 2011 there will be a combined meeting of the committees for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Materials. The first session will look at Korean resources in Japan. Session II will be on East Asian Librarianship and Border Crossing Collection Development and Management. The full agenda is still in formation as is the timing of the CEAL meetings due to AAS’s expansion of the panel schedule to Thursday morning.

Yoshiro Kato gave his first Japan Liaison’s Report. He began by expressing his commitment to work for future training programs for Japanese studies librarians and deepening NCC’s collaboration with sister-organizations in Japan such as JANUL (the Japanese Association of National University Libraries) and JASPUL (the Japanese Association of Public University Libraries). He encouraged expansion of librarian exchange programs such as that which Keio currently has with University of Toronto.

Discussion also focused on the frequent problems of visitors to Japanese university libraries who are confronted with policies that make it quite difficult to get assistance or access to the materials they need for research. Institutions tend to have very individual guidelines and different standards rather than a centralized system. Developing an online Directory to Japanese Research Libraries and Institutions is a plan for NCC’s expanded Website (to be discussed later). The notion of a directory to Japanese library policies was suggested at 3-D. It was mentioned that the SHARES program (originally created by RLG and now a part of OCLC) allows library cardholders from participating institutions to use facilities in their network; perhaps SHARES would be a good system to examine when thinking about a similar system in Japan.

The recent Chronicle of Higher Education article (Sept. 8th http://chronicle.com/article/A- Slow-Start-for-Japans-Ef/124346/) on the problems of Japanese higher education in developing the “Global 30’s” English Language curriculum at the graduate level was discussed. In NCC’s goal of trying to encourage greater access to Japanese university libraries, the Global 30 might be an excellent target group of collaborators. It was also suggested that CULCON be encouraged to bring more Japanese undergraduates to the US. The idea of creating a reverse Bridging Foundation was reportedly raised at a recent CULCON Meeting.

The Report of the Digital Resources Committee (DRC) was given by Dawn Lawson. DRC plans to create a toolkit for individuals and institutions that want to form their own digital resource consortia written by librarians who have successfully developed such consortia. Further discussion on digital resources was deferred to the 3-D Conference review session.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

The ILL/DD Committee Report was given by ILL/DD co-chair Michiko Ito, who spoke about the potential abandoning of technological platforms upon which the Global ILL Framework relies. Specifically discussion focused on soliciting letters of support for the continued use of the ISO protocols by OCLC for transactions with Japanese libraries, and the plans of NII to discontinue the original format of WebCat which works much better than subsequent formats for ILL/DD requests from abroad. NCC will work with the ILL/DD Co-chairs, Michiko Ito and Lars Leon, to develop a letter to OCLC advocating the continuation of the ISO protocols and will also encourage Japanese colleagues in JANUL and JASPUL and colleagues in Canada, Europe and Australia to write in support of the continued need for the ISO protocols.

The Image Use Protocol Task Force Report was given by co-chair Fabiano Rocha. A number of successful IUP Workshops were offered in the last year, including those at the Japanese Studies Association of Australia (JSAA), the European Association of Japanese Resource Specialists (EAJRS), the University of Toronto, and the University of Hawaii. In addition an IUP Toolkit was created to aid librarians and faculty in offering their own IUP Workshops.

The task force has officially completed its work and its term ended on June 30, 2010; however there is an ongoing need for a group to oversee the Website and develop new IUP services. An IUP Working Group was created later in the meeting to oversee future IUP developments. One important area of need for IUP is in the use of photographs. There was also a request for IUP materials related to the use of moving images, including film clips and/or sound clips, especially for teaching purposes. It was suggested that several experts in these areas be located and asked to join the IUP working group.

Setsuko Noguchi gave the Librarian Professional Development Committee (LPDC) report, with additional discussion from Fabiano Rocha, who has created a Canadian task force to plan an international librarian training seminar in Toronto in 2012, prior to the AAS Annual Meeting. The program is intended for junior Japanese studies librarians and other East Asia librarians who are responsible for Japanese holdings but not necessarily fluent in Japanese language. University of Toronto will apply to the Japan Foundation’s Grant Program for Intellectual Exchange Conferences in Canada. It was noted that this is not an NCC task force; rather it is an independent Canadian initiative in which NCC is playing a supporting and collaborating role similar to the role NCC played with the Tenri Workshops.

The Multi-Volume Sets (MVS) Project Report was given by Michael Bourdaghs. The annual MVS meeting was in February in Cambridge at which a total of 13 grants were made to 7 institutions. Extended discussions addressed whether MVS should change its criteria to serve a wider range of institutions. At the 3-D conference, people self-selected to attend the MVS breakout session from one of three choices, and most of those at the MVS sessions wanted to see change. The overwhelming suggestion was to use MVS funds to support a national strategy of shared digital resources that could be used by smaller libraries and individual users. A recommendation to create a two-tiered system to accommodate different size institutions was also strongly endorsed and has since been approved by the JUSFC, making the two-tiered model immediately available. From the 2010-11 grant year 40% of funds will be reserved for

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

smaller schools (with less than $10,000 in annual Japanese materials budgets) with a 20% cost-sharing requirement.

A discussion followed about future strategies for MVS funding. Margaret Mihori encouraged NCC to think very strategically about their next funding proposal and to consider every aspect, including MVS, to be on the table. If NCC were to propose that MVS be switched in part or wholly to support of digital resources, the questions was raised about how institutions might view a grant that allowed three-years’ access to digital collections that might not be extended by their home institution. Other grants have stipulated that an institution make a commitment to support a project beyond the life of the grant. For example, in the past Japan Foundation and Luce Foundation funded the creation of faculty lines that in principle were expected to be ongoing incremental positions. It was recommended that such a sustainability clause should be included in any future NCC grants for digital licenses.

Another issue is the distribution of acquisitions resources and the transition from print to digital materials. Currently, digital licensing options tend to be for a set amount of time (ordering from a menu vs. a la carte) by purchase of site licenses for the resource. There is a need for a broader range of options to expand access by permeating the wall in the current business model. An alternative might be to offer individual site licenses across institutions open to everyone. Pricing policy is the ultimate negotiating factor that everyone is struggling with, and if NCC had the equivalent of the current MVS funding behind them they could use that clout to speak on behalf of academic institutions in expanding the range, target audiences and types of licenses available.

The question was raised about the need for basic Japanese resources at institutions with small or non-existent Japan studies collections. The Japan Foundation discontinued its grants for basic sets of library materials and there is no other source for new programs. The JUSFC cannot step in to provide funding, and MVS was not intended for funding this kind of resource. NCC will continue its efforts to find alternate sources for providing such materials to new Japanese studies programs. The Nippon Foundation’s 100 Books Project was cited as a similar effort, and possibly Nippon Foundation would be interested in working with Japanese publishers to make basic Japanese resources more available abroad. Council members suggested that NCC recommend that the Nippon Foundation create a Japanese equivalent to the 100 Books for key Japanese resources. A focus group of scholars could easily be formed to help compile a list of the key materials to be on a list from which applicants might apply as they do with the 100 Books.

As of July 1, 2010, Hitoshi Kamada of University of Arizona was scheduled to become MVS co- chair for the coming year; however he has returned to Japan. Therefore Mari Nakahara of Library of Congress has assumed the position of MVS co-chair for the following two years. Two former co-chairs will return to MVS to assist during 2010-11: Eiichi Ito will work closely with Mari on prescreening, the application process, and data collection, and Kuniko Yamada McVey will serve as a member of MVS’s five-member screening committee.

NCC’s proposed sessions for AAS 2011 were discussed. This year regular AAS panels will start on Thursday morning, which presents possible scheduling conflicts for times that CEAL, NEAC, ATJ, IUC, and other groups that hold meetings in conjunction with AAS. Given the new AAS schedule, NCC has proposed to hold a roundtable on E-books and a workshop for faculty. For the E-books roundtable, database creators have been asked to present their new materials. The roundtable will be used to encourage their consideration of new business models for individual users.

An additional point was made about many aggregated databases. Some providers seem to continually expand the size of their databases. For many users there might be greater demand for smaller, more specialized datasets. Some aggregators have been asked to separate out their huge databases, since many users need only one small portion. For such users a dictionary embedded within a large database may be very difficult to find; whereas if databases are disaggregated, key components might be more widely recognized and used. This is another example of the need to create business models for small universities and may be an important discussion that can be carried on in NCC’s roundtable.

NCC members began a discussion of the recommendations that came from its March 22-23, 2010 3-D (Third Decade) Conference. While NCC does not immediately have funds to initiate many of the major recommendations of 3-D, the first phase of the expansion of the NCC Website will be undertaken with existing part-time hourly staff. Initial steps on the Website redesign have begun with the streamlining of NCC URLs. The initial pilot phase, using existing funding, will be completed during this fiscal year by June 30, 2011. During that time, a new task force will be formed to review 3D Website-related recommendations, prioritize goals, assign projects, and begin working with international collaborators. Working with NCC staff, the task force will launch the pilot phase of the site. A key component in the pilot phase will be more tightly focusing the Website on an audience of faculty, students and librarians who are not Japan specialists. To reach the target audiences the Website needs to provide very easy, clickable access, focused on users. It is especially important to create pathways for those different types of users (Japanese studies faculty, students – both graduate and undergraduates, librarians who do not read Japanese, and the general public).

Because the vast majority of the 3-D recommended projects have a major web component, the first phase of Website re-development will provide an important foundation for other recommendations. New Website components initiated in the future will be implemented in tandem with other 3-D recommendations. As the first phase of Website redevelopment proceeds, NCC will simultaneously be working on funding to build incremental portions of the site and working with the task force to define a timeline for implementation of specific web products with an eye to making all web resources flexible, expandable, iterative, and participatory. The Website and its products will anticipate and facilitate NCC’s future directions, making the site an alive, interactive, growing product of NCC’s vision.

Other specific Website-related recommendations included:

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

 Making the NCC Website a true clearinghouse for Japan-related information for users interested in Japan.  Making the NCC Website a major hub for online Japan-related instruction by coordinating the creation of LibGuides and other materials, which will help minimize redundancy and free librarians to create more specialized LibGuides that highlight the special characteristics of their collections.  Developing a directory to Japanese academic libraries, archives, and research facilities, and their access and affiliation policies for potential researchers. The site should include downloadable bilingual templates for applying for researcher status (NCC’s IUP Website offers an excellent model of a Website template for this project).  Targeting resources for non-EA librarians at smaller institutions who are not yet fully familiar with NCC and other Japan-related services, and for ILL librarians who do not read Japanese.  Developing new components in bilingual formats with robust support services and searching capacity.  Providing online instructional support for new digital resources, and for “very large” Japanese databases with “open access” including systems such as the Japanese Institutional Repository Database Online (JAIRO).  Making the broad needs of social scientists for databases and public opinion data a key part of Website development plans.  Producing online tutorials to train grad students to use digital resources in their future teaching.  Creating multi-media instructional components developed for new visual and digitally focused users making use of the full range of social networking capacities including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and online chat reference services.

Participants were each asked to comment on aspects of the 3-D Conference and NCC services that are of particular import to them. Faculty participants began the round-robin discussion.

Michael Bourdaghs, University of Chicago: NCC is changing, and this is an especially important transitional period. Before he joined the NCC Council MVS was the sum total of his reference to NCC. MVS is a program he has fondness for because of his excitement in seeing wonderful rare sets coming to the US and being available from interlibrary loan. Chicago has a wonderful library and all of the resources he could want are at his fingertips, but he realizes that few faculty are blessed with the same set of circumstances.

NCC’s Image Use Protocol project has been extremely useful to faculty everywhere and will continue to be an enormous resource. The IUP solved an important need in an elegant and user-friendly way. IUP is a perfect example of the kind of needs that are out there for which NCC has provided expert intervention to clearly define the communal problem and create services to fill that need. There is a need for other such services that no organization but NCC will tackle. 3-D pointed the direction to some problems faced by the broadest range of faculty and students that NCC may be able to solve during the coming decade.

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Patricia Maclachlan, University of Texas-Austin: Representing the social sciences and a university that is resource-poor in East Asia, she brings many challenges to NCC. UT has just produced a list of $1.2 million worth of journals that must be cut; the Asian studies section alone is a page and a half long. This is an increasing reality among many public institutions. In examining how to build resources for the future, it is clear that out of necessity, the majority of new resources must be digital. After assuming her position on the NCC she polled her Japan faculty-colleagues at UT. All of them said that when push comes to shove, they want the digital databases over the physical books because they can build teaching around digital resources, which are also good for language instructors.

As was pointed out at 3-D, there continues to be a need for NCC to expand resources for the social sciences; it is especially important that the social science audience be part of NCC’s Website redesign.

Ken Ito, University of Michigan: This meeting has been a great resource and made him think about many applications to his day-to-day work. NCC is grappling with issues that we are still figuring out, such as what digital resources will look like in 10 years. It is essential to think about how to train students at smaller institutions, and how to continue to support them.

However, as a scholar and user of MVS he hopes to see it continue. The idea that the MVS collection has created something that will be used by unknown numbers of scholars in the future is very important. Library collections are not just about building for the moment, but for generations to come. The foresight to collect for the future makes new research possible, and that is always part of the discussion at NCC.

Yoshiro Kato, NCC Japan Liaison (Keio University): Generally speaking, all services have a life cycle. NCC tries to grow and follow cycles in the field and as an organization it has reached a period of maturity. Each project has a cycle of creation, maturity, and ending. It’s important to examine how long and how much each project deserves to be sustained so that NCC and its collaborators can move on to providing the most needed services in the future.

Eizaburo Okuizumi, University of Chicago Library (observer): Since 1993 Chicago has received 23 MVS titles costing more than ¥23 million. Scholars come to U-Chicago specifically to use MVS materials. Many MVS volumes don’t have an index, and by having MVS sets at a major collection like U-Chicago users can receive the support services provided by Chicago’s library staff. Finally, because of the physical format of MVS collections, everyone can go to the stacks to see the titles on the shelf with works on similar subjects. It is an irreplaceable benefit to patrons. He and his colleagues want to see NCC continue to provide MVS services.

Dawn Lawson, NYU: Always finds it exciting to be out of the office and at a meeting like this, because it’s a great way to get ideas. Plans for making the NCC Website better are really exciting; it would be nice if the first Website task force meeting were a Skype conference call.

She is particularly moved by testimonials of how NCC has helped users and would like to see the Website be very inclusive, with YouTube clips, a hub for LibGuides which can be managed

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

using LibGuides’ locker box template function, so that when one thing changes, it all can be updated. Perhaps to get the LibGuide hub started NCC should ask JUSFC to immediately fund the purchase of a LibGuide subscription for NCC.

Michiko Ito, University of Kansas: As a Japanese librarian from a small institution and co-chair of the Global ILL Framework she worries that WebCat may be gone soon and that OCLC has said they will terminate the ISO protocols. Both of these are resources essential to GIF. NCC agreed to work with Michiko and ILL/DD co-chair Lars Leon in drafting a letter on behalf of Japanese materials users encouraging OCLC to continue the ISO protocols and to ask OCLC to better consult users as they determine timelines for the adoption of new platforms or the discontinuation of services (similar letters should be sent by colleagues in Japan and elsewhere abroad).

NCC’s Website is GIF’s major information hub and needs to be at the top of NCC’s priority list for redesign. It was agreed that the ILL/DD committee will be the first focus for Website upgrades.

Haruko Nakamura, Yale University: She always likes to hear faculty saying that they learned so much from NCC once they get involved; NCC should survey past faculty-members to hear stories about how their research and teaching changed after learning more from NCC.

Additional surveys on MVS would be valuable. In 2000, it was found that ILL statistics were not broadly kept; also there were often not records kept on materials locally available and on the stacks. However, local circulation statistics would be useful and perhaps improvements in technology and tracking make that possible. In advance of NCC’s reapplication to JUSFC for its next three year grant, NCC should poll MVS institutions to ask how faculty have used MVS over time. There are two sets of needs for the money current allocated to MVS: smaller schools need to have access to databases, but strong user-statistics may also support continued funding of the physical volumes traditionally part of MVS. Perhaps NCC should propose a different two-tiered strategy targeting wealthier schools for traditional MVS grants and helping to make databases and more basic materials available to smaller institutions.

Fabiano Rocha, University of Toronto: We need to strike a balance between building collections like MVS that support high standard research collections, while building audiences and supporting smaller institutions. Access for Canadian users is greatly affected by whether materials are in print or digital. NCC has a dedicated group of people and volunteers who make seemingly impossible tasks possible.

Peter Young, Library of Congress: Funding for public higher education in the US has dropped by 27% in the last year. It’s a bleak economic outlook, and institutions are feeling the pain, regardless of size or endowment. In that environment, we cannot expect that area studies will be riding high. That places greater emphasis on institutions and on meta-groups like NCC. Organizations must either evolve or go extinct and will increasingly be challenged on program and service content, policy, and ability to stay abreast of technology.

Part of analyzing who you are as an organization is determining who to partner with, and who your competitors might be. In this environment it is increasingly important to examine which professional associations and partnerships yield better results. NCC serves not just universities, but anyone who might be interested in Japan. In that role there is a constant need to look at how the Website defines its mission, vision, and values. This is a transitional period for all, and NCC needs to focus on transformative projects and services, some of which may not currently be apparent to us. NCC captures a larger need above that of any particular institution, and capturing it and transmitting it is vitally important. NCC is in a position to be able to see what is happening, note what the trends are, gauge what the coming changes are, and develop services to broadly meeting those needs.

Most libraries have been focusing on their collections, almost to distraction, but a library’s collection is only illuminated when someone uses it. If collections are not used their value cannot be transferred or reiterated. Anything that NCC can do to develop core programs that involve users is valuable to all. One idea from 3D is to do more to link people, not collections, to know people in a multi-disciplinary universe, to achieve the ultimate goal of libraries, which is to use knowledge to create greater understanding. NCC’s position is to help libraries become more valuable in making that bridge, without which we might suffer from isolationism, which may create mistakes and misconceptions that could have global ramifications.

Setsuko Noguchi, Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC): Increasingly we are seeing the benefit of connections between the US and Japan, helping participants to see new ways of operating, promoting an optimistic view of the future. NCC can help push towards this positive future. Setsuko’s new position is with CIC, made up of the big 10 universities and University of Chicago. Many of those institutions don’t have Japanese bibliographers, and her new role is to serve as Japanese Studies Librarian for three of the member institutions, University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana, University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Similar to NCC’s discussions at 3-D, CIC has been thinking about creating a directory for Japanese studies libraries in the Midwest, and developing a group account for a LibGuide that all can update centrally, including tabs with pages for each institution within the group, to help faculty and students know about available resources. As NCC further develops this idea, NCC should work closely with CIC.

At the conclusion of the first day’s business, NCC unanimously voted to award Dr. Eric Gangloff the NCC Lifetime Achievement Award upon his retirement. The award will be presented at the April 2, 2011 JUSFC Reception at the AAS Meetings.

Administrative Updates, New Business, Council Recommendations, Future Planning:

Keiko Yokota-Carter gave a brief Chair’s Report that focused particularly on the European Association of Japanese Resource Specialists Conference, which she had just attended. Two NCC-related presentations were given at EAJRS. Fabiano Rocha reported on NCC’s Image Use Protocol Website completion, on the successful international series of IUP Workshops, and on

101

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

the development of the IUP Workshop Templates to enable individual librarians to offer free standing IUP Workshops. Keiko herself spoke at EAJRS about NCC’s 3-D Conference and explored further opportunities for international cooperation with members of EAJRS. EARJS members were also especially interested in NCC’s plans for developing Faculty-Librarian Research Teams for institutions with smaller collections, which they believe will be an excellent model to replicate in Europe and globally. Keiko also reported that EAJRS has proposed delegating a representative to NCC to enhance communications and collaborative planning in the future. All agreed that it is an important step in deepening collaborations between EAJRS and NCC. Hamish Todd, Lead Curator of the British Library’s Japanese Section, Asian, Pacific and African Collections, was subsequently selected to serve as the first EAJRS representative to the NCC.

In concluding her report, Keiko Yokota-Carter proposed a change to NCC’s bylaws to recognize a new NCC affiliate body, the “Working Group.” Currently NCC has committees and task forces; working groups will differ from those in that they focus on a single ongoing issue or set of related issues and may maintain an ongoing membership over a long period of years. In contrast NCC Committees have a three-year rotating membership, and task forces are created with a set timeframe and a circumscribed mission to complete. NCC’s role in working groups may take a range of forms from direct management, to hosting a working group’s webpage, to advocacy, or simple support within the field. The members of the Council unanimously endorsed that bylaw revision.

Victoria Bestor presented the Executive Director’s Report and circulated NCC’s combined expense report for 2009-10. The budget for last year was larger than usual because of the 3-D Conference, and NCC was extremely successful in raising funds and in-kind contributions for 3- D, including the international airfare for most participants, $5,000 from NEAC for faculty and graduate student participation, and very generous support from the University of Pennsylvania Library which covered one conference luncheon and made a $750 tax payment to the Sheraton Hotel. Consequently there were funds leftover from the two major grants, the Japan Foundation (for which $1,490 has been requested for return), and the two JUSFC grants (for annual support and principal funding for the 3-D Conference). In its final reports to JUSFC, NCC will request that some of the remaining funds be used to advance 3-D Conference recommendations, which JUSFC did following the Year 2000 Conference.

Vickey also announced that the Japan Foundation has instructed NCC to apply for the coming round through its Center for Global Partnership (CGP). Fund-raising is proceeding for implementation of 3-D recommendations and will include proposals to CGP and Toshiba International Foundation. For the coming year JUSFC is the only ongoing funding NCC has in hand. Part of the JUSFC grant earmarks funding for part time staff, which during 2010-11 will undertake the pilot phase of Website redesign and upgrade, to create a new foundation for all NCC Web-based services. Two possible part time hires were discussed in that context. One is Akiko Yamagata, a recent MA graduate of the Regional Studies East Asia Program at Harvard, currently working half time at the Harvard Museum. She is bilingual and very familiar with Japanese studies information and may be hired to help coordinate additions to the Website and monitor pages for needed updating and linking to other sites. Hitoshi Kamada has also

102

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

been suggested as a part time staff person in Japan. He is returning to Japan after over 10 years as a librarian at the University of Arizona and is a former member of the NCC Council, very familiar with the GIF project and other NCC services. In Japan he will continue to work half time for University of Arizona system serving remotely as the system’s only Japanese studies librarian. NCC may hire him to help develop bilingual content for the Website and to provide support for the Global ILL framework. These are both short-term plans that with future funding might evolve into permanent part time positions.

With NCC’s deepening international collaborations, travel for the Chair and Executive Director is another area of future budget need. To date, NCC Chairs have made annual acquisitions trips to Japan. As a rule NCC has been able to add on a few days of NCC-related meetings to such trips, paying only the incremental lodging, meals and domestic transportation. However as institutional budgets shrink, travel expenses are not being covered. Future NCC budgets should earmark funds to cover a portion of the international conference participation of officers and key committee chairs and to help support the travel of designated representatives to NCC meetings. It is also vital that an NCC representative take part in key international meetings and conferences. Those would include the European Association of Japanese Resource Specialists Conference (EAJRS, annually in September), the Toshokan Sogoten (in Yokohama each November), the biennial Conference of the Japanese Studies Association of Australia (JSAA, every other July), and an increased number of meetings held in conjunction with the Annual Meeting of the AAS. Such costs should be included in future grant proposals.

Discussion returned to the Global ILL Framework: Essentially there are two communities that need assistance with global ILL: interlibrary loan staff and general faculty users.

The ILL process is usually conducted directly institution-to-institution, in English, using customary OCLC systems. Japanese materials are generally not listed in sources commonly known by ILL staff, and for institutions to recognize Japanese libraries as an ILL source the process must be filtered through the NACSIS catalog system. Participation with Japanese libraries therefore interjects a third element on a different platform using Romanized Japanese text. Most major errors occur within the ILL department and are generally due to problems using Romanization.

The statistical reports available from GIF participants in Japan do not accurately reflect the frequency of successful ILL/DD usage. Rather, the cancellation statistics are somewhat inflated because they are based on the number of transactions, not the number of requests. That is, when making one request, ILL staff can identify multiple institutions, which hold the requested material. The request is sent to Japan. If the first institute declines the request, this it is counted as one [cancelled] transaction. The request will be then sent to the second institution on the request list. If this second institution declines, it will again be counted as a cancelled transaction, and sent to the third institution listed. As a result, 1) although NII’s statistics do show the number of successful requests, they are not able to provide the total number of requests, and 2) the total number of transaction does not accurately reflect the number of successful requests made between Japan and North America,

103

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

thereby failing to show the actual rate of successful requests through the project.

The possible abandonment of both the ISO Protocols by OCLC and NII’s plan to discontinue the original version of its WebCat online catalog would greatly contribute to the difficulties that interlibrary loan staff have in using the GIF system. Some institutions have asked if NCC’s ILL/DD Committee could manage Japan-directed ILL transactions for them. That is not possible because ILL is conducted between institutions with OCLC acting as the bank for ILL transactions settling up through OCLC’s enormous payments network.

There are a number of concrete ways NCC can expand and simplify GIF-related services on the NCC Website to further help both users and ILL staff. One such plan is to develop a guide to Romanization of Japanese terms. Many small colleges have no library staff with Japanese language proficiency or familiarity in the using of the NACSIS WebCat system; even major libraries sometimes need help in borrowing materials in classical Japanese. In addition it was suggested that the ILL/DD Committee assign a committee member to serve monthly as a GIF reference person, with their name posted on the GIF homepage. The combination of a part time NCC staff member assigned to GIF and a committee member serving as a monthly reference contact could greatly improve GIF services.

The needs for supporting user-training and deepening international collaboration such as the one with JANUL that manages GIF led directly to discussions of NCC’s planned application to CGP. The current plan for a CGP proposal has three major components: 1) Developing a globally applicable model for faculty-librarian research and teaching teams through systematic training, Internet-based support services and mentoring. Such teams are greatly needed at institutions where Japanese studies are taught but where there are no significant Japanese language collections or Japanese area specialist librarians. 2) Expanding NCC’s global collaborative networks to further support existing exchanges and to help to develop new collaborative initiatives that expand Internet-based services to users and promote new models for the distribution of digital resources from Japan to individuals and institutions. 3) Expanding NCC’s interactive Website to serve as the platform for new services and as a global clearinghouse for access and use of resources on Japan, creating a virtual community connecting Japanese studies specialists worldwide.

1) Faculty-Librarian Research Teams (FLRT): will be developed through collaboration with regional Japanese studies groups and smaller institutions with long history in Japanese studies. Collaborating institutions are likely to include members of the AsiaNetwork, Associated Kyoto Program (AKP), Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC), Great Lakes College Association (GLCA), the Midwest Conference on Asian Affairs (MCAA), the Oberlin Group, and Southern Japan Seminar (SJS).

Team activities will begin with a 2-3 day workshop attended by teams (generally made up of one or more faculty members, a reference librarian, and an ILL librarian). The first such workshop is planned to take place in the summer of 2011. Each workshop is projected to bring together 5-8 research teams. The number of research teams to be supported has yet to be determined, and workshops may be repeated, as demand requires.

104

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

After the initial team-building workshop, teams will be expected to work together locally, supported by an extensive network of online services based on the NCC Website. Each team will also be assigned a Japanese librarian “mentor” in their region. NCC will meet annually with small groups of teams, likely in conjunction with AAS, regional AAS and Japanese Studies meetings, and/or ALA affiliated meetings such as ACRL and the regional ILL groups. The initial project will run three years, and following evaluations, will publish a model that can be replicated in other regions and countries.

To further support Faculty-Librarian Research Teams, NCC plans to apply to a private foundation to establish named research fellowships that could be applied for by teams. Fellowships may support additional travel costs to meetings, subscription fees for databases, short-term research projects, and more advanced training in specific areas of need. In exchange Fellows will be expected to serve the field by developing course materials, giving research talks, offering regional workshops, creating Internet-based resources, serving on committees, and otherwise promoting the faculty-librarian research team model and its services.

2. Strengthening Global Collaborations multi-directionally: In the last two decades NCC has developed extensive collaborative relationships in Japan and within the global Japanese studies community. These networks continue to grow and to sustain important international exchanges of resources and personnel. Building on the successful model of NCC’s 2008 Image Use Conference, NCC plans to hold an international “Summit” in conjunction with the 2012 Toshokan Forum. The Summit will bring to the table the top executives of major database- creators and publishers of digital resources to meet with a small international group of faculty and librarians from Europe, the Middle East, North America, South America, Southeast Asia, and the Asia-Pacific. The Toshokan Sogoten is Japan’s equivalent to the American Library Association (ALA) annual meeting, held each November at the Minato Mirai conference center in Yokohama, and is the ideal venue for holding this conference.

The 2012 NCC Summit at the Toshokan Forum will be conducted entirely in Japanese, with foreign faculty speakers presenting concrete examples of their use of digital resources in teaching and research. The speakers will come from a range of foreign centers of Japanese studies and will be joined by a small group of major opinion leaders from Japan.

The goal of the Summit is to make Japanese digital resources more widely available to users with a broader range of licensing options offered both on institutional and individual bases. Traditionally Japanese digital resources have been marketed with large corporate models in mind. It is NCC’s goal to emphasize a) the cultural diplomacy value of ensuring that comprehensive and accurate Japanese digital information is available to users, and b) the long- term benefits of using new digital resources to teach Japanese language students -- and future corporate leaders and Japanese studies scholars--to be fully fluent in new information technologies. Once students come to depend on such Japanese digital data sources they will carry that demand to future companies, prompting corporate contracts to grow. By focusing on this dual cultural diplomacy and market building strategy NCC hopes to encourage executives from major Japanese database-creators to see the academic community as a very

105

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

fertile, productive, and global market with considerable long-term growth prospects. Supporting academic users may also open other markets among internationally minded firms worldwide, as has recently been the case in Taiwan.

Laying the groundwork for the Summit will be one of NCC’s central efforts during the next two years, beginning with NCC Chair Keiko Yokota-Carter’s discussions with Toshokan Forum leaders in November 2010. Between now and 2012, NCC will work on multiple fronts to deepen international collaboration, network to identify the best faculty and librarian participants globally, and develop interweaving multi-level connections with leaders of the top database-creators and publishers to bring their key decision-makers to the table for a face-to- face summit between users and digital resource creators. NCC-related faculty members and librarians are currently working behind the scenes to deepen mid-level and senior executive connections within the major newspapers and publishing companies. NCC is also working closely with the major database-creators and resource-aggregators to enlist their help in bringing smaller and more specialized publishers into the process.

3. Redesigning and Expanding NCC Website to serve as the platform for these and other services: As noted in earlier reports on the 3-D Conference, undertaking a major redesign and expansion of the NCC Website is a principal objective for the coming years. The initial site redesign has been begun and URLs have been re-routed. Website expansion will also provide major support for the Faculty-Librarian Research Teams, for expanding existing international partnerships and for supporting the needs of digital resource users. See page 26 of this report for details on the Website plan. Council members also strongly emphasized the need to expand social media on the Website. It was further suggested that NCC’s Website development plans should include a future part time staff position for a dedicated social media coordinator or consultant.

The final discussions of the meeting focused on Council suggestions for candidates for positions coming open including the humanities faculty position held by Michael Bourdaghs and the Digital Resources Committee chair held by Dawn Lawson. Recommendations were also received for NCC Committee, Task Force and Working Group members. The members also recommended that the University of Texas at Austin be investigated as the location of the next NCC Working Meeting, probably to be held in the fall of 2011. Possible programs in conjunction will also be discussed with UT-Austin faculty. Patricia Maclachlan will investigate further and if held there would serve as meeting host probably in October 2011.

REPORT ON THE DEMISE OF A CANADA-JAPAN LIBRARY COOPERATION PROGRAM

Yasunori Ueno, visiting librarian of the National Diet Library (NDL) for the Japanese Collection at the Centre for East Asian Studies/Centre d’ėtudes de l’Asie de l’Est (CETASE), University of Montreal/Universitė de Montrėal (UdeM).

The purpose of this international cooperation project was to promote the exchange of books as well as academic and library personnel between Canada and Japan, broadly speaking, and, specifically speaking, to help lay the foundation of and build up the Japanese Collection for the East Asian Studies Program at UdeM. Over the past 35 years since 1975, this library program has been successfully functioning for the above purpose, but with great regret the program was terminated September 2010 because of budgetary limitations at UdeM.

Because of limited space in this report, I will try to commemorate the main part of this library project by summarizing the records of eleven librarians in the order they were dispatched from NDL to UdeM.

In total, eleven librarians from NDL came to UdeM between 1975 and 2010. From time to time I would have an inquiry from library users of UdeM such as, “How is Mr. so and so, a former visiting librarian from Japan, doing?” However, after this month, library staff here will not be able to answer this kind of question. Therefore, let me take this opportunity to report to you a brief history of the Japanese Collection and these past librarians from NDL.

The first librarian who arrived in 1975 at UdeM was Mr. Akio Yasue, who was a young and energetic library staff member of NDL with six years’ working experience. His main duty was the daily management and systematic development of the Japanese Collection at UdeM. At that time UdeM was preparing to start CETASE by first opening their specialized library based on a private collection from Dr. Robert Garry, Prof. of Geography in East Asian Studies. In these early days, the CETASE library was an independent collection and was not a part of the UdeM Library system. Adminstratively the collection was struggling to keep afloat due to its financial support depending entirely upon the Federal Government of Canada and the Central Government of Japan (The Japan Foundation). Yet, Mr. Yasue did his best to develop the collection of Japanese materials dealing with this difficult situation while also simultaneously supporting documentation research activities of CETASE. He later returned to Japan in October 1978. After 26 years, he was appointed to the Deputy Director of NDL (No. 2 position) in December 2004 and retired in 2006.

The secondly dispatched librarian, Mr. Norihiro Kato came to UdeM in November 1979. He contributed a short essay on his experience at UdeM to The Montreal Bulletin (Sept. 19, 2009). He returned to NDL in February 1982. Three years later, he made his debut as a literature critic in 1985. It seems to me that something he nursed in his mind during his stay in Montreal might have helped change the course of his life. He is now teaching Modern Japanese Literature at the School of International Liberal Studies at Waseda University.

The third visiting librarian from NDL, Mr. Akira Kado, was sent to UdeM in June 1982. Around this time, the University of Montreal financially committed to unilaterally and continually support this international library cooperation program. Until then, the program was taken care of by both the governments of Canada and Japan. Without question, their contributions to UdeM were very much appreciated by many Japanologists in these two countries. Around this time, various lectures and seminars on Japanese Studies were often organized by the Centre for East Asian Studies at UdeM. Therefore, in addition to daily library duties, Mr. Kado had to help assist these academic events by compiling bibliographies of Japanese materials with regard to the main subject of the upcoming lectures and/or seminars, by searching library locations of these books within North America, if necessary, and further making an inter-library loan for these books, if requested by library users of UdeM, and so on. He also had to take care, to a certain extent, of many Japanese scholars invited to these lectures and/or seminars. In November 1986, after successfully fulfilling his cooperation duties at UdeM he returned to NDL in Tokyo. Afterwards, following approximately twenty years’ work, he retired from NDL in March 2005.

The fourth librarian, Mr. Keiya Utsumi, came to UdeM in December 1986. According to an agreement concluded between UdeM and NDL at the time when Mr. Kado was serving at UdeM, Mr. Utsumi was invited to UdeM for the first time with financial assistance from UdeM. However, he faced several unexpected procedural troubles incurred by the agreement made in an early stage. After three years he returned to Japan in November 1989. He was my supervisor at NDL, when I left there for Montreal in Summer 2007. He used to sing a French song beautifully at a Karaoke club in Tokyo. He was promoted to be Chief Librarian of the General Affairs Division of NDL (No. 3 position) and retired this past March 2010.

The fifth librarian invited to UdeM was Ms. Akemi Asaka, who arrived at Montreal in November 1989. She was the first female librarian from NDL to UdeM. Fortunately, she faced no troubles of the sort that Mr. Utsumi once experienced and successfully finished her duties at UdeM. The Japan Study seminars, which started when the CETASE at UdeM was established in 1975, with the cooperation of many Japanese librarians from NDL, unfortunately came to a close around the end of 1992. Ms. Asaka left Montreal to return to Tokyo in November 1992. After that she was involved in preparing to open the Kansai Branch of NDL and is presently working for the newly built Kansai Branch in Kyoto.

The sixth librarian was Mr. Yasushi Yamaji, who was dispatched to UdeM in October 1992. The mechanization of the Japanese Collection at UdeM had gradually started at that time. Looking back from today it was an early stage of merely collecting cataloguing data in a PC. Mr. Yamaji returned to NDL in October 1995. From that time on, the mission period for a visiting librarian from NDL to UdeM became exactly three years. After returning to Tokyo, Mr. Yamaji was widely active in serving the International Children’s Library located at Ueno, Tokyo, a branch of NDL, and engaged in maintenance of facilities of NDL, as well.

The seventh visiting librarian from NDL, Ms. Yoriko Sato, came to UdeM in November 1995. Before the computerization period of our current library system, the traditional library used to have a card catalogue system with bibliographic information of a book described on a card. A computerized cataloguing system requires transferring bibliographic information from each

108

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

card into the new mechanized system, i.e. a retrospective conversion process. This was a main focus during her stay at UdeM. She took part in this conversion project most of the time during her stay at UdeM. She returned to Japan in October 1998. At NDL she was assigned to the Department of Foreign Materials as well as the International Children’s Library and was very active in these positions.

The eighth librarian who came to UdeM in September 1998 was Ms. Asa Takanobu. A photograph of her can be seen on one of the posters of the CETASE, which is hanging on a wall along a corridor of it. Therefore, unless this poster is taken down, her portrait is evidence of the international library cooperation program of visiting librarians from NDL to UdeM. After she returned to Tokyo in October 2001, at NDL she dealt with foreign materials as well as Japanese materials on political history.

The ninth visiting librarian, Ms. Yuko Nagano, arrived in September 2001. According to her, her wish was to come to UdeM at some time. Before she began working for NDL, she dreamed of going to UdeM. During her stay here she took full advantage of studying in the Library Science Program as well as taking French courses. Her three years in Canada were spent having very happy experiences of studying and working at UdeM. She returned to NDL in October 2004 and since then she has been engaged in corresponding with foreign libraries located overseas.

The tenth librarian was Mr. Tadahiko Oshiba, who was sent over to UdeM in September 2004. It was during this time that the East Asian Collections merged with the entire library system at UdeM, and searching for East Asian books could also be carried out through the UdeM internet. Since that time previously used materials in the East Asian Collections were used more often than before and the number of reference queries increased as well. These have reflected a big change of library users for East Asian Collections. Mr. Oshiba was released from his visiting duties at UdeM in September 2007. After returning to NDL he has been in charge of collection development and has presently been sitting next to Mr. Yamaji, the sixth librarian mentioned above.

The eleventh and final visitor from NDL is myself, Yasunori Ueno. I arrived at UdeM in September 2007 and will leave in mid-September 2010.

These eleven librarians from NDL have been glad to have fulfilled each of their assignments at UdeM to his or her best capacity. Their professional and cultural experiences at UdeM and the Japanese-Canadian community in Montreal have enriched each of their lives invaluably and immeasurably and have become a great asset to his or her public and private life after returning to Japan. We hope that the Japanese Collection successfully built up at the Centre for Japanese Studies at UdeM will continue to be useful not only for students and faculty members at UdeM but also for members of the Japanese-Canadian community in Montreal. The international library cooperation program for the past 35 years between Canada and Japan since 1975 ended September 2010 with everybody’s regret, but a fruitful product of this program has now grown up as an important component of the various UdeM Library collections. Therefore, many visitors are anticipated to come and use this Japanese Collection* at the CETASE at UdeM. Lastly, we, the visiting librarians from NDL, would like to express our

109

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

appreciation from the bottom of our hearts to all of you involved in this two nations’ library project on the Canadian side for your kind cooperation and support extended to us over so many years.

*Approx. total 17,000 volumes: 7,000 vols. in Japanese and 10,000 vols. in English and French as of 2009.

RETIREMENTS

Abraham Yu retires from UC Irvine

Abraham Yu retired from the University of California, Irvine Libraries on November 12, 2010, after twenty years of service. Since his arrival in 1991 as the first head of East Asian cataloging, Abraham was committed to building a user-centered cataloging operation for the Libraries' East Asian language resources. What began as a one-man operation grew into a CJK cataloging unit able to provide quality cataloging for Chinese, Japanese and Korean resources.

Abraham made numerous contributions to the East Asian cataloging community through his involvement in the OCLC CJK Users Group and the Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL). He was President of CEAL 2003-2006 and before that Chair of the Technical Processing Committee. He established himself as an expert in authority control for CJK headings; in large part because of his work in this area, the addition of vernacular characters on authority records in the OCLC authority files has become a reality.

Abraham is looking forward to spending time with his family and helping out with his grandchildren. (From an Eastlib posting by Ying Zhang)

NEWS OF THE FIELD

Geographic Name Mapping Project at UBC

The mapping of geographic names recorded in the head tax database was launched in the fall of 2008 as one of the “Asian Library’s Partnerships with Communities’ Program Series”. Following twenty rounds of community-based meetings with Taishanese/Zhongshanese- speaking participants, towns and villages of origin reported by 90% of the immigrants were matched with the original geographical names in Chinese scripts. This project is a foundation of an international research network for reporting the roots of emigrants from Guangdong, China from 1885-1947, during which head tax was levied on incoming ethnic Chinese.

The idiosyncratic dialects of the Chinese immigrants from a myriad of villages and towns of southern Guangdong contributed to a collection of sometimes indecipherable documentation of their roots. Because Customs personnel failed to accurately capture and document immigration interviews, innumerable Romanizations of the reported places of origin were recorded. As a result, analysis of and research on regional identities has been difficult.

Of the 97,123 entries in the immigration register, 93,815 contain data on the county/town/village of origin. Of these, 44,131 record Taishan as the village of origin; 5,898 record Zhongshan. Through this mapping project headed by Eleanor Yuen and Phoebe Chow, in all about 90% of such places of origin in Taishan and Zhongshan were deciphered. With the findings, the Register of Chinese Immigrants to Canada, probably the most detailed records in Canadian immigration history, now makes more sense to the public searching for their ancestral roots as well as to researchers interested in the patterns of immigration from China to Canada during this major historic phase of population movement.

It is planned that when more resources are available, mapping will also be conducted for the remaining major sending counties of Xinhui, Kaiping, Panyu, Enping and Heshan. For more information on the project, contact Eleanor Yuen ([email protected]) or Phoebe Chow ([email protected]). (From an Eastlib announcement and brochure provided by Eleanor Yuan)

Recent MLIS Thesis on CJK Cataloging

ONNAGAWA, Mie.

Japanese Bibliographic Records and CJK Cataloging in U.S. University Libraries. San Jose State University [United States], 2009 (M.L.I.S., School of Library and Information Science). Chairperson-Major Adviser: Kristen R. Clark. xii, 133p. Abstracted in Masters Abstracts International 48, no.4 (Aug. 2010); UMI (formerly University Microfilms International) order number 1484368.

Edited from the abstract on page iv of the thesis:

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

“Over the past two decades, American university libraries have developed Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) enhancements to their library automation systems and have transitioned from conventional card catalogs to online public access catalogs (OPAC) by using CJK vernacular scripts even though non-Roman script search options of these systems are still limited.

The East Asian library community in North America continues to deal with complex problems regarding the cataloging of East Asian library resources dueto the inconsistency of cataloging rules used in bibliographic records for CJK materials. Despite all of the improvements and efforts made by CJK catalogers, their task of creating more precise and accurate CJK library- cataloging records remains challenging, mainly due to their unfamiliarity with cataloging rules and the difficulties with language.

The purpose of this study is to examine the university library policies and practices in cataloging CJK materials and authority control of CJK bibliographic databases, particularly of Japanese records for monographs published after 1900. The thesis evaluates the creation, maintenance, and sharing of the bibliographic records for CJK materials. “

Toshie Marra receives UCLA LAUC-LA 2010 Librarian of the Year Award

Toshie Marra, a librarian in the UCLA Richard C. Rudolph East Asian Library, was named the 2010 Librarian of the Year by the Librarians Association of the University of California, Los Angeles. This award recognizes excellence in librarianship, particularly as it furthers the teaching and research mission of UCLA, and meets the intellectual, informational, and cultural needs of the university community.

The award, conferred during the Association’s spring meeting in May 2010, recognized Toshie for leadership, courage, and perseverance in her efforts on the behalf of the UCLA Library in the purchase of the microform edition of the Gordon W. Prange Collection. The collection contains magazines and newspapers published in Japan during the Allied Occupation for the years 1945 to 1949. The magazines and newspapers collection is part of the Gordon W. Prange Collection at the University of Maryland at College Park Libraries.

In addition, by building on her relationship with the UCLA Terasaki Center for Japanese Studies, Toshie was also able to obtain additional support by the Center for the purchase of special storage cabinets and for a new microform reader. The Center also agreed to provide a visiting researcher fellowship to pay for outside scholars to visit UCLA to use the Prange Collection. Toshie was also recognized for her efforts in the establishment of reciprocal library privileges between UCLA and Japanese universities.

OBITUARIES

Richard Ming Lai 1920-2011

Richard Ming Lai of Arlington, Virginia, died on Thursday, February 3, 2011. Until his retirement in the mid-1980s, he was Director of the Chinese University Press in Hong Kong. Prior to that, he was Director of the Hong Kong Government Information Services, and the first Chinese ever appointed to head a government agency in Hong Kong under British colonial rule. He was appointed as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1978.

Richard Lai was born in Port St. Louis, Mauritius, in 1920, the ninth of fourteen siblings. He attended St. John's College in China and later received his M.A. in Education from Columbia University in New York. For fifty-four years he was married to Lin Taiyi who was an author and until her retirement, the Editor of the Chinese edition of the Reader's Digest. She preceded him in death. He is survived by his children Jill and Larry, and three grandchildren, Lindsay, Mark and Anna. (From an Eastlib posting by Frank Joseph Shulman, excerpting the obituary in the Washington Post, February 9, 2011)

Prof. Paul Willem Johan van der Veur (August 28, 1921 – January 20, 2011)

Paul W. J. van der Veur died in Canton, Ohio, on January 20, 201, at the age of 89. Professor van der Veur was one of the key figures in the establishment and expansion of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies at Ohio University and the Southeast Asia Collection in the Ohio University Libraries. He also played an important role in the development of the Center as an important node in academic publishing on Southeast Asia.

Paul van der Veur’s early life was closely intertwined with the colonial history of Indonesia and the Second World War in Southeast Asia. One of the first cohorts in the famous Southeast Asia program in Cornell University, his teaching and research career took him across the world, from the United States, to Europe, and Australia, in addition to Southeast Asia. His work spanned political and social science and history. A biographical sketch written by his colleagues Kent Mulliner, Lian The-Mulliner, Prof. Norman Parmer, Prof. Drew McDaniel, Prof. Ronald Burr, and Keng We Koh follows.

Born in Medan, Sumatra, in the then Dutch East Indies, Prof. van der Veur moved with his family to Surabaya, Java, at a very young age. He grew up there and retained fond memories of the city. He received his early education in the Indies and the Netherlands, returning to the Indies just before the Second World War. He was transported to Japan and did forced labor in factories there during the War. After the War, he came to study in the United States. He received his bachelor’s degree from Swarthmore, his master’s from Minnesota, and his PhD in Political Science and Southeast Asia Studies from Cornell. His dissertation was on the

116

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

Indonesian Eurasians. He taught at Yale, University of Hawaii at Manoa, Northern Illinois University, and finally, Ohio University, from which he retired. In-between, he took up a research fellowship with the Australian National University, where he researched and published on Irian Jaya and Papua-New Guinea, including an edited volume (with David G. Bettison and Colin A. Hughes) on the 1964 Papua-New Guinea elections. His research on Soetomo, a prominent Indonesian nationalist, also took him to Airlangga University in Surabaya, Indonesia, in 1980 on a Fulbright fellowship. His research and teaching career spanned the United States, Europe, Australasia, and Southeast Asia.

Prof. Paul van der Veur was the founder and first director of the Southeast Asian Studies program, in 1967. He served as Director of Southeast Asian Studies over several periods: 1967-1973, 1976-77, 1983-4, and 1988-90 and directed the growth of the Center into a major resource center for Southeast Asian Studies in the United States by the mid-1970s (See Ileto 2003).

Together with Prof. J. Norman Parmer, the first Director of International Studies at Ohio University, Prof. John F. Cady and other faculty, Prof. van der Veur played an important role in building the Southeast Asian Studies and International Studies programs. They were crucial in expanding the masters program in the formative years of the Center. Many of these students later went on to establish academic careers in different parts of the world. They also increased the number of faculty in the different University departments working on Southeast Asia. No less importantly, Prof. van der Veur inaugurated and promoted the research monograph/paper series by the Center of International Studies/Southeast Asian Studies in the late 1960s, which significantly raised the profile of the Center within the United States, and internationally, laid the foundations for the Center’s development as a major publishing center in Southeast Asian Studies.

Prof. van der Veur and Lian The-Mulliner, the first Southeast Asian Studies Librarian in the Ohio University Libraries and later the first Curator of International Collections, were instrumental in building the Southeast Asia collection, almost from scratch. He remembered, how, when they started work in the University, an inventory check revealed that there were very few books on Southeast Asia in the library, and perhaps only six reputable journals on Asia, most of which were incomplete. As the first Director of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies, he made the expansion of the collection an important component of the Center’s own development, and worked to raise funds for the expansion of the collection.

By the time of his retirement from the University, and with the contribution of other faculty and librarians, the Southeast Asia Collection in Ohio University Library had become one of major collections in the country. Prof. van der Veur remained an important supporter of the library after his retirement, donating his collection of books and materials on Southeast Asia, which cover a wide range of topics on the region, over the years since his tenure at Ohio University. In 2008, he donated his papers and research materials to the Ohio University Library, and these are now housed in the University Library Archives. Nationally, he participated in the formation of the Southeast Asian Council (SEAC) and its predecessors within the Association for Asian Studies. Reflecting his commitment to increasing awareness

117

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

of research and writings in languages beyond English, he was instrumental in establishing the Translations Project Group of the Southeast Asia Council and arranged for the publication of the early fruits of its sponsorship.

Prof. van der Veur published on a wide range of topics from Eurasians in Indonesia, the Freemasons in the Dutch East Indies, issues surrounding Irian Jaya and Papua-New Guinea in the 1960s, Dutch colonialism, Indonesian nationalism, Education and Social Change, Race and Ethnic Studies, among others. He was also rather unique in his many publications of research and bibliographical guides, in collaboration with Lian The-Mulliner. These included a pioneering bibliography of dissertations on Southeast Asia submitted in the United States through mid-1968 (Treasures and Trivia) and an annotated inventory of the articles in the Verhandelingen van het Bataviaasch Genootschap (VBG) 1779-1950, the earliest Dutch journal on the Netherlands East Indies. He was co-author of the Area Handbook on Indonesia. He gave special attention to translating primary materials (such as the autobiography of early nationalist, Dr. Soetomo) and significant scholarship from Dutch into English.

Prof. van der Veur continued to publish after his retirement, completing a biography of E. F. E. Douwes Dekker, a prominent Eurasian and Indonesian nationalist from the Dutch East Indies, in 2006. In 2007, he published “Van den Berg’s Essay on Muslim Clergy and Ecclesiastical Goods in Java and Madura: A Translation” (Indonesia 84:127-159). He continued to visit Ohio University Library in search of materials and references for these later publications, demonstrating how the partnerships and collections he had built during his academic career continued to inspire and support his research and writing after his retirement. At the time of his death, he was working with Lian The-Mulliner on a translation of L.W.C. van den Berg’s De Inlandsche Rangen en Titels op Java en Madoera.

Prof. van der Veur’s career epitomized the symbiotic relationships between librarians and faculty and between research, collection development, and library services that have been instrumental in the development of Southeast Asian Studies in the United States. He also played an important role in bridging different language traditions of scholarship on Southeast Asia between Indonesian, Dutch, and English, just as his own research transcended disciplinary boundaries. In many ways, his work and approach embodied the cross-cultural, inter-disciplinary, and inter-professional enterprise that is Southeast Asian Studies. His life and career also reflected the experiences of the first generation of students and scholars in Southeast Asian Studies, and the struggles in the early development of the field in the United States.

Raoul Kulberg (1930-2011)

Raoul Kulberg, a native of Cleveland, Ohio, a graduate of Pomona College in Claremont, California (B.A., 1953?) and George Washington University (M.A., 1970), and a doctoral candidate (A.B.D.) in American cultural studies at Bowling Green State University (Ohio), passed away on January 2, 2011 in Silver Spring, Maryland. He was eighty years old. Early in

118

Journal of East Asian Libraries, No. 152, February 2011

his career, he worked on the Far East desk at the U.S. State Department; subsequently he served for many years as a reference librarian at what is now known as the University of the District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.).

A longstanding member of the Mid-Atlantic Region/Association for Asian Studies (MAR/AAS) and the national Association for Asian Studies, he presented papers at a number of MAR/AAS annual meetings on such topics as the history of the New China News Agency (NCNA) and the portrayals of missionaries in films about China. He also was a member—in some cases, a life member—of the American Historical Association, the American Oriental Society, the Association of Moving Image Archivists, the Council on East Asian Libraries (CEAL) of the AAS, the Friends Meeting of Washington, D.C., the Smithsonian Associates, the Traditional China Colloquium of Washington D.C., and the Washington Film Society; actively participated in regional, national and international meetings including many that dealt in various ways with Asia; and visited more than one hundred countries in the course of his travels around the world.

China, which he visited on five occasions between the early 1990s and Spring 2001 (most often on study tours led by Professor Yu Li-hua), was particularly high on his list. He and his wife Eve studied Chinese at the Xi'an Foreign Languages Institute, and one of his "informal quests" during many of his travels outside of China was to search for Chinese restaurants in out-of-the- way places. In addition, he was an avid collector of ephemera from China as well as of newsletter-type publications and books dealing with East Asia, film studies, and the American Civil War.

Kulberg became a pacifist after serving in ROTC during college and campaigned against the Vietnam War in the 1960s. During that same period, he wrote a thesis entitled "NCNA, a History and Description of Chinese Communist Press Agency Operations, 1920-1965" for his M.A. degree in Political Science at George Washington University (M.A., 1970. 241p.).

Survivors include his wife Eve Anne Johnson Kulberg, three children and two stepchildren. A memorial service is planned for May 2011. (From an Eastlib posting by Frank Joseph Shulman)

REVIEWS

The Chinese Anti-Rightist Campaign Database 1957- (“中国反右运动数据库, 1957-”), CD-ROM, Hong Kong: Published and distributed by The University Services Center for China Studies at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Chinese University Press, 2010.

The first impression of this database upon a user may be that it is compiled by Chinese librarians specialized in the field. A quick glance at the Editorial Board of the database confirms this. One finds the names of four familiar Chinese librarians: Yongyi Song (Chief Editor; California State University), Yuan Zhou (University of Chicago), Zhijia Shen (University of Washington at Seattle), and Zehao Zhou (York College). From 2002-2006, these four librarians served as the major force in the compilation of The Chinese Cultural Revolution Database 1966-1976, which, also published in CD-Rom and Online formats by the Chinese University of Hong Kong, has been acquired by and used in East Asian libraries all around the world.

This database, focusing on the Chinese Anti-Rightist Campaign, is the second part of an ambitious project to cover all major political movements in China since 1949, and like its predecessor in the series, it is intended to be used as a comprehensive and accurate source of primary data for the study of the contemporary history of China. The first and largest of its kind, it has more than 12,000 entries including government documents, directives, bulletins, speeches by Mao Zedong and other officials, editorials of major Chinese newspapers and magazines, articles written by the “rightists", articles published to denunciate the “rightists”, and original archives of the Anti-Rightist Campaign. The size of historical data included is enormous: there are over 25 million Chinese characters of firsthand materials (more than half of which have been re-collated), and nearly 5,000 original Rightists files.

The database contains also documents from other political movements that are closely related to the Anti-Rightist Campaign: the Campaign against the Hu Feng Counterrevolutionary Clique (反胡风反革命集团运动), the Campaign for Eliminating Counterrevolutionaries (肃反运动), and the Socialist Transformation of Industry and Commerce (工商业改造), which were prior to the Anti-Rightist Campaign; the Debate over Red and Expert (红与专辩论), the Double-Anti Campaign (双反运动), the Campaign for Opening the Heart to the Party (向党交心运动), and the Campaign to Pull Out White Flags and Plant Red Flags (拔白旗、插红旗运动), which were subsequent to the Anti-Rightist Campaign.

One likely benefit to the user of a database compiled by librarians is the strong search functionality built in. And it is so for this database. Not only is it fully searchable in both Chinese and English by author, subject, title, date, and keyword, the database also has such useful functions as “print,” “keyword highlight,” and “toggle between Chinese and English.” In addition, a new function that allows the user to search by “place” (which was not included in The Chinese Cultural Revolution Database 1966-1976) has been added to this database. This new function facilitates geographical search tasks such as finding from the database all articles that were published in Shanghai. When you click the "place" icon and choose “Shanghai” from

a pop-up list, hundreds of titles will be brought up, ready for you to browse on the screen. You can read the entire text of a title if by selecting it.

With its obvious strengths, the database could benefit from a few additional improvements. One is to add a clear icon on the first-appearing interface to indicate which language (Chinese or English) will be used. This would make it easier for the user to locate materials in the database by their language expertise. It would also be helpful to display all the subject headings under each article so that the user can click on a subject heading to access related data.

However, these are minor issues and do not reduce the enormous value of this intellectual product. The database has received extremely positive comments from well-known scholars in and out of China.
