Abstract

type:Article

The purpose of this paper is to examine the operations of an overseas oral history unit – The Center for Digital Humanities and Social Sciences at Michigan State University（MATRIX）. We visited the MATRIX, which is based at the Michigan State University, to study investigation activities, management, and method of public presentation of data. The effectiveness of the MATRIX's work results from the expertise of their management. This report documents our careful investigation of their practical expertise. We believe our report will be useful to people who are planning to start a full-scale oral history center in Japan. Although there is a considerable interest in the concept of oral history in Japan, the necessary infrastructure is currently undeveloped. Given the situation in Japan, we believe the information contained in this report is of a substantial value.
