Here I present: United States Library Mission, “Report to Advise on the Establishment of the National Diet Library of Japan”, 8 February, 1948. Kokuritsu Kokkai Toshokan 国立国会図書館 is the image ABOVE; and, it reads in English “National Diet Library”.

The report consists of three sections: 1. Introduction, 2. Body and 3. Appendix. The table of contents is shown BELOW.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

I. A National Library Service for Japan.
II. Objectives and Functions.
III. Organization.
IV. Administration.
V. The Collections.
VI. The Building.
VII. Budget and Priorities.
VIII. Education for Librarians.

Kokuritsu Kokkai Toshokan 国立国会図書館 is the spelling of the National Diet Library; and, the image ABOVE is the building today.
I have lived in both Washington, DC and Tokyo, Japan; therefore, I compared the Library of Congress with the Diet Library.
The Washington Metro and the Tokyo Metro both have subway station-stops at the National Libraries. I recommend these great places to visit in either national capital.
