UBC Japanese Library Resources Blog

We are currently running a trial of Koseisha’s Zasshi kiji sakuin shusei, an index of Japanese periodicals that covers materials published from the Meiji Period to today. The database includes the full National Diet Library periodicals’ index, but is especially useful for those looking for resources published before 1948.

To access this index:
1) log into your VPN
2) go to the information page
3) click on “via the web”
4) click on 詳細検索

The trial ends October 24, 2009.

For more information on this database, check out this brochure (pdf).

I would appreciate any feedback you may have regarding this resource. Please e-mail me with your comments.
