Journal@rchive

J-STAGE includes the Journal@rchive (ja), an open access digital archive of Japanese journals, established in 2005 by the Government of Japan.[4][1] By April 2009, some 540 academic organizations made use of the facility.[5] As of February 2012, 1.68 million articles were available for download.[6] To build the archive, in 2006 a robotic book scanner was introduced that could scan 1,200 pages per hour.[7]
