The purpose of this study was to delve into the academic databases of overseas nonprofit organizations, to assess their qualify and to discuss whether or not it's possible to introduce them in the nation and in which way that could be done. And it's also attempted to provide information on the academic databases of nonprofit organizations in nonEnglish-speaking countries in a bid to prepare a wide variety of academic materials about broader fields that would be distinguished from those offered by existing academic databases, since it's not currently possible to take advantage of academic materials possessed by such nations. The efforts by this study was expected to gather international information at a lower cost and in a more efficient way and eventually to contribute to improving the productivity of academic research.
