FOCAL: The Asia Directories Database
A new tool, the Asia Directories Database, now offers access to the names of approximately one million persons registered in The Foreign Residents Lists of the Asia Directories and Chronicles.

Additionally, FOCAL allows connecting a search result with the source material, thus providing a new perspective on the implementation of digital archives.
