Welcome
Since our founding in 1928, the Institute of History and Philology (IHP) has striven to acquire and research various historical materials such as artifacts, books, and documents. Our collections are currently housed in the Fu Ssu-nien Library, the Museum of the IHP, and the Center for Taiwanese Archaeology. Beginning in 2001, through active participation in science and technology projects on the national level advanced by Academia Sinica, we have been digitizing these collections, including but not limited to archaeological data, rubbings, rare books, materials pertaining to minority ethnic groups, and the Archives of the Grand Secretariat. In order to coordinate these digitization efforts, the Archives, IHP, was formed in 2014 with the view of systematically managing, collating, and maintaining the collections and digital resources of the various units operating under the IHP.
The Archives is currently focused on collating documents, whether academic, administrative, or more general in nature, from the time of the establishment of the IHP moving forward, as well as on soliciting collections from parties outside the IHP. These efforts include the establishment of a database with practical search functionality that can provide readers access to various forms of media including audiovisual materials. With these goals in the mind, while complying with the Archives Act and the Personal Data Protection Act, we strive to both respect the wishes of all donors as well as providing fair access of these collections to the public.
