Vita.] Special Problem (Master of Library Science)--University of the Philippines Diliman October 1974. The Japanese occupation of the Philippines, 1942-1945 is a period to reckon with, especially at present when we Filipinos are forging a "New Society". Today, as during the Japanese occupation period, our institutions and culture are again put to test. Only if we learn from that experience can we score high. It is with this realization that this study was undertaken. Notwithstanding the volumes of materials on the Japanese occupation of the country which are found in various private and public libraries and in collections of private individuals in the Philippines, no bibliographical control has been devised except for a provisional annotated bibliography prepared in October 1945 by the Office of the Chief of Counter-Intelligence, Philippine Research and Information Section, GHQ, AFPAC, APO 500. In an attempt to meet this need the author of this study devised a bibliographical essay on the general book collection on the period which is found in the Filipiniana Section of the University of the Philippines Main Library and a register of the Japanese Occupation Papers, also available in the same library; and surveyed sixteen libraries and private collections in the Greater Manila Area. In the bibliographical essay, mention was made of other materials not found in the collection so that researchers could easily locate the source of inforamtion. In the register, working categories were devised. As a whole, the papers were divided into two, namely: (1) general and (2) guerrilla papers (otherwise known as Llanes papers). Both categories were divided into scope and content, and descriptive listing, each arranged alphabetically according to author, title or subject, whichever applied to such arrangement. For better understanding of the nature of the papers, its provenance was briefly constructed. In general, the papers are rare and primary. Rare, because except for a few, they are not available in other libraries or collections, and primary, because these are the basic documents on the period. They provide basic information in the study and research on public administration, demography, and cultural history. They also provide rich socio-psychological data on the responses of the Filipinos to the exigencies of war. Microfilmed for posterity, they have been organized and arranged according to the principle of provenance and placed in special manuscript boxes now housed in the Rare Book and Special Collections Room of the Filipiniana Section. In the case of the other libraries and private collections, a classification of materials was made, relative to the size of the collection. Arrangement was in alphabetical order by author, title or subject, whichever was feasible. Whenever only one copy of the material exists, it was mentioned as such. For a graphic presentation and easy location, a summary table of Japanese Occupation materials and their location was designed according to the Library of Congress classification scheme for history. The volumes of materials on the Japanese occupation of the country are by no means all identified. Even in the Greater Manila Area other libraries and private collections are presumed to have other materials on the period; and there must be some more in other parts of the country. But for those surveyed in the study some statements of concern are in order. For the collections of public libraries like the National Library and the National Archives, a register would help much the students on the period. If private and military libraries can similarly devise their own register, the better! For all collections, public, private and military, restorative measures must be undertaken on the deteriorating materials. Perhaps, if the government can purchase the private collections, the quality of scholarship in the country would be enhanced. Again, all collections must be made accessible to interested students, especially Filipinos. So that they would not remain unknown, a unified bibliographical control must be devised on these materials. Philippines--History--Japanese occupation, 1942-1945--Bibliography.
