Abstract

<p>U-PARL (Uehiro Project for the Asian Research Library) at the University of Tokyo Library System has opened on Flickr a collection of digital images of rare Chinese books and calligraphic models selected from the library holdings. U-PARL chose Flickr with the aim of constructing a digital archive that was not only compact and inexpensive, but that also held the potential for aggregation by much larger database networks as well as usage by a wide-ranging audience. This paper explains how U-PARL made this choice, and shows the current status and agenda facing the archive. The focus of the paper is placed on newly designed metadata categories and cataloging conventions, the use of Creative Commons licenses and the construction of a research environment using Omeka.</p>
