Abstract

AMANE.LLC and the Nature and Science Museum, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology signed a comprehensive cooperation agreement on the construction of an academic digital archive and surveys and research on sericulture-related materials in July 2021. In recent years, there has been a strong demand from society for university museums to actively disclose and utilize academic materials, and the two organizations have been collaborating on the survey, digitization, and construction of a digital archive of sericulture-related materials in the museum's collection. In this presentation, we will report on the collaboration between the two organizations and the digital archives they have constructed, focusing on the perspectives of inheritance and disclosure of academic materials.
