Since its founding in 1877, the University of Tokyo has absorbed the world's knowledge on the basis of the accumulation of intelligences and cultures in East Asia, and has become the backbone of the development of academic research in modern Japan. It is extremely important to look back on the process of building their own identity about how universities as a community of knowledge should be desirable to involve in societies, states and human being. It will be necessary to institutionalize an active mechanism by which we can make reference to records and documents held in libraries and departments, seeing the University’s history as an academic asset. In order to accomplish the scheme, we has decided to make this project through interdisciplinary collaborative research.
