Abstract: The Institute of Developing Economies (IDE) undertakes basic and comprehensive research on economic, political, and social issues in developing countries and regions. As part of the institution, the IDE library collects materials on our research fields, especially published in the local field and also written in the local language. This article introduces how to collect the Indian local materials based on our distinctive ways of resource acquisition. For instance, we purchase materials directly from local book sellers. We also exchange materials with local institutions and universities. In addition, we visit the fields and obtain materials there. In the later part, my own experience of visiting Delhi in India in 2007 for a business trip is also referred.
