Self-description:
"The Center for Japanese Studies (CJS) promotes and disseminates research on Japan, fosters communication among diverse disciplines, and encourages new approaches in the understanding of Japan and its place in the world. Founded in 1947, CJS is the oldest interdisciplinary center in the United States devoted exclusively to Japanese Studies. CJS is also part of The University of Michigan's East Asia U.S. Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center, along with the Center for Chinese Studies and the Center for Korean Studies. [...] CJS Publications Program Founded in 1950, CJS's Publications Program publishes research on Japan. Works appear in three series (Michigan Monograph Series in Japanese Studies, Michigan Papers in Japanese Studies, and Michigan Classics in Japanese Studies) and as nonseries publications. [...] In addition, the Center makes books available in electronic format. In addition to having out-of-print books available online, we publish the peer-reviewed series Michigan Classics Online, and Faculty series, which contain online books and archival material edited by Center faculty members.
