Current Awareness Portal is a website which announces information on libraries and library and information science created by the National Diet Library of Japan (NDL).It provides a news blog, Current Awareness-R, and web versions of NDL publications: email news magazine Current Awareness-E, quarterly magazine Current Awareness, research reports such as NDL Research Report and the NDL Library Science Series. Almost all of the content is originally written in Japanese, with some translated and available in English.

In addition to the three newly available articles, we are planning to publish more in the near future.
