Research and Development on CD-ROM Version of Database for Japanese Literature

在这个项目中，我们开发了许多日本文学数据库。这些数据库主要分为三类；1)手抄本或木版印刷的经典原版图像数据库，2)古籍、研究论文、期刊及众多索引王等的目录数据库，3)源语篇、万书等修订后的经典全文数据库，并开发了数据库的形成、管理和利用的新技术和新系统，可供日本文学研究者作为用户使用。特别是开发了光盘版数据库，为创建个人数据库系统做出了贡献。这些光盘如下。i)联合目录数据库版本，即国立日本文学研究所收藏的微缩旧书，大约有12万份记录。ii)以岩上出版的《日本Koten文化大经》为基础的全文数据库版本，收录了《成义物语》、《山本物语》、《国仁和书》等11部精选作品。iii)多媒体数据库版本收录了《伊势物语》、伊原多部作品等手写体旧书的3000幅图像信息，并增加了图书的联合目录信息。日本文学工作者构建了这三种类型的光盘，并在实际研究环境中进行了可行性测试，评价其具有较高的利用率和可用性。而且，这些产品现在正在投入实际使用。
