Japan Consortium for Arctic Environmental Research (JCAR) was established by arctic environmental researchers in Japan, and it is a nationwide network-based organization for promoting arctic environmental research. The number of member is about 400 people, as the same as the medium-sized academic community. It has already become difficult to take the communication among members, and JCAR office was seeking a new communication tool as a network type organization. We have compared various tools, and selected "researchmap". We create a JCAR community on the researchmap on October 2014, and we have operated it. By using researchmap, it has succeeded in providing the following functions.
-Deliver news and information via e-mail without mailing list
-Electronic voting
-File sharing
-JCAR member information sharing
In this presentation, we want to introduce the case study of the academic community using the researchmap, and share to other academic community.
