1. About Saving a Search

The Saved Searches (マイ検索) feature allows you to save your favorite search formulas in folders. Saved Searches are shared among all users who share the same Yomidas Rekishikan Subscription Agreement.

The Saved Searches feature may not be available, depending on the subscription type.

Search formulas can be saved from the Meiji, Taisho & Showa Eras, Regional Sections (Showa Era), Heisei & Reiwa Eras and The Japan News sections, but not from the Contemporary Who's Who.

Saved Searches may be protected by setting a password. However, only one password may be set per Yomidas Rekishikan Subscription Agreement.

Up to 20 folders can be created per subscription contract, and up to 50 search formulas can be stored in each folder.
