Oppotunity to support the Earthquake Disaster Material Collection(EDMC) (Request)

In the early morning of January 17, the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake brought devastating damage. Kobe University Library in the disaster stricken areas has tried taking as much part of the responsibility of a university library as possible, and has proceeded the preparation to serve the data “documents and data related to Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake Disaster”, which the library vigorously collected before.
In the process of collection, The library was given heartful support and assistance from not only the people in this area but also a lot of organizations, associations and individuals all over the world. Fortunately, EDMC has implemented a public release of those data as “Earthquake Disaster Materials Collection(EDMC) in Kobe University Library” since October 30th 1995.
