    As of April 1994, the new overseas public relations and information project initiated by the Japan Center for Intercultural Communications in 1985, making use of state-of-the-art technologies and new media, has borne fruit in the form of the Japan Information Network. JIN provides up-to-date English-language information about Japan to institutions around the world. These include Japan Informations Centers, which are located in Japanese diplomatic offices and serve as points of dissemination for information about Japan, as well as major organizations worldwide which conduct research on Japan. JIN is a vast communications network, founded on an extensive database providing English-language versions of Government information and supported by an on-line information system with electronic-mail capacity for responding to ad hoc inquiries. Without becoming too embroiled in detailed descriptions of the technical aspects, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce JIN from the perspective of overseas public relations, the primary objective of the network.

    Progress of computer and network technology has changed information environment into degital era. Degital information can be easily copied, modified, and transmitted with hardware and software tools ; degital copy does not degrade. They can manipulate preexisting degital material, link different pieces of information, create new works and broadcast to other users. This change of creation and distribution of information has greatly affected the existing copyright system. The author sums up the questions of the concepts of works, and of authors and rights of degital information. It is necessary to consider new copyright system to encourage the creation and distribution in degital era. An approach to the system is proposed with due attention being paid to the feature of degital environment in this paper.
