Not books, but here's a good article that helped me get started in studying the subject:

Louise Watanabe Tung. “Library Development in Japan.” The Library Quarterly: Information, Community, Policy 26, no. 2 (1956): 79–104. http://www.jstor.org/stable/4304515.

Have you come across any interesting books on pre-1871 Japanese archival or library history, or in-depth looks into book collecting? I found a neat article to use for one of my Lib Sci assignments awhile ago and wanted to dive a bit deeper on the topic catalog.lib.kyushu-u.ac.jp/opac_downloa...
