A member number is added to each of the recording media, and the purchaser automatically becomes a member of the club. The publisher, the publisher, launches the club's website on the Internet at the same time as the publisher. The purchaser of the publication (that is, the member) uses the membership number attached to the publication as the identification number of the homepage and allows the homepage to be freely accessed. On the homepage, create a page of the latest information such as discovery and excavation made after the publication of the published academic field publication, and members can freely browse and download it cheaply to their personal computers etc. You can freely edit things.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the present invention, publications that have been published once have been arranged or studied on the basis of information at the time of publication, and new discoveries and inventions thereafter have not been disclosed. Also, new publications had to be purchased, placing a great burden on researchers and enthusiasts. In addition, when purchasing a publication, the impressions and opinions after reading it could be sent to the publisher, but the publisher did not announce it but was unilateral. In addition, since still stationary prints can also use moving images and audio by utilizing digital technology, the understanding of the recipient side can be greatly promoted in some fields.

Means for Solving the Problems Publishing using a digital storage medium has already become commonplace, and a link is provided from the digital storage medium used for publishing to a homepage on the Internet, and an attached identification number is placed on the homepage.

In addition, by providing a place for members to exchange opinions on other pages, it is possible to make use of the unique advantages of the Internet and to interact with distant enthusiasts and fellow students.

[Example] For example, when a publisher intends to publish Japanese history, the publisher digitizes the content instead of a book printed and bound on paper, installs it on a digital storage medium (mainly CD-RW), and sells it. I do. At that time, a number is assigned to the storage medium used for the issuance, and that number becomes the membership number of the online history research club (provisional) of OO Publisher (for example, in the case of the first edition 10,000 sets, H00001-
10,000). In addition, the address of the homepage launched by the publisher is written on the storage medium with a link attached to the homepage. The purchaser reads the contents of the storage medium and learns and collects information, but when he or she is willing, can link to the storage medium to browse the club's homepage and download new information to his / her own storage medium for a fee.
