In the middle of the nineties some challenges toward a consortium building emerged. In 1998 Scientific and Technology Information (STIC) under the control of National Science Council (NSC) decided that CONCERT was established. Since then STIC has managed and operated the consortium. The core program of CONCERT is to provide overseas digital resources for the nationals covering bibliographical and full-text databases, electronic journals, reference databases, so on. This article introduces licensing model of CONCERT, selection policies and evaluation of resources included in CONCERT, access methods to those databases, the fund and management, so on.

    It has been long urged that private firms should improve their operation by use of IT, however, that improvement has rarely seen in their libraries. Regarding improvement of those operation improvements by use of IT we need to expect not only for save-manpower inside the firms but also for re-engineering of the whole existing operation mechanism. The homepages on the Internet send huge amount of and diversity of information to the audiences. This is because that some learned people speak out un-necessity of libraries. With those situations the author expresses his thought on what functions or roles libraries of the 21st century are called for. In detail he discusses this issue on each part, that is, people, information and space; for instance what roles or duties the people are called for.

    In order to activate our nation’s economy, the Advanced Intellectual Properties should be put into practical phase. Since national universities become legal entity, we expect those universities to perform more businesslike activities, especially for technology transferring. Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) has been operating technology transferring to companies obtained from universities since 1961. The primary thing for technology transferring is patent application. But it requires particular know how skills because there exists a big gap between inventions from universities and companies. The author introduces the JST’s patent supporting system and discusses several particular issues about academia inventions.
