Exploring the history of libraries and libraries in Germany
The lab of Assistant Professor Atsuyuki Hara studies libraries in modern and contemporary Britain and Germany.
It investigates how public libraries came into being in 19th-century Britain, where publishing flourished and the number of readers grew after the Industrial Revolution.
For the contemporary period, it compares how library policy and services differ between Germany, which has a federal system, and Japan.
For the sake of this comparison, it also explores the history of libraries in Japan since the Meiji era.
