Abstract
In November, 2006, Kyoto Seika University establishes the Kyoto International Manga Museum where 200,000 items of Manga materials are exhibited. Its research department is to work on such projects as theoretical analysis of the changes in presentation styles of Manga, and sociological study of Manga. It is also to study how to expand the use of Manga to digital contents or educational materials in collaboration with industries, and to consider Manga in terms of intellectual property and how to protect its copyright. In addition, the Digital Archives (Manga Archives) made public on the Internet are going to be built. In preparation for information exchange with concerned institutions by metadata management of information, and with a view to development of the Mangapedia: Manga-Encyclopedia in the future, the system will be created based on the OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting), the ISO23950 (Z39.50) which is the international standard for cross search function, and the JPEG2000 which is the international standard for the digital image.
