| Summary: | 古老的契字文書，是先民處理種種物權和債權的記錄，為歷史過程中的有機產物，也是反映民間社會生活的重要文獻；無論是開墾、買賣、租佃、典貸或在家產分配時，都需依據土地契約作為最基本的證據。透過契約文書的解讀，我們可以從不同的角度，暸解先民來台開墾的過程、家族的成長以及土著族群為何喪失土地產權等類的歷史問題。
本研究採用「深度訪談法」與「實地調查法」進行研究，主要調查訪談對象包括：中央研究院台灣史研究所、中央研究院民族學研究所、宜蘭縣史館、國史館台灣文獻館、國立中央圖書館台灣分館、國立臺灣大學圖書館、國立故宮博物院、國家圖書館等，共八所機構。
本研究將以實地調查之方式，至古地契之典藏單位蒐集資料；瞭解各單位典藏古地契之特色、重點。深入訪談以古地契典藏單位中的實務工作者為對象，透過訪談進一步瞭解各單位之古地契資源管理現況為何，以及其相關推廣活動與相關建議。
據研究發現，提出結論如下：一、各典藏機構所藏古地契之特色不明顯，主題容易有重疊的現象；二、各典藏機構古地契徵集方式以捐贈、購買為主；三、各典藏機構所持分類方式不盡相同；四、古地契目錄建置現況以線上目錄較為普遍；五、古地契編目欄位視各館需求而異；六、古地契推廣應用主要有三種模式，即（一）策劃展覽活動；（二）印製刊物發行；（三）舉辦相關研討會，整理相關建議後另提出將古地契檔案融入史學教育之中，或進一步作數位化整合與加值。
針對前述研究結果提出建議：一、促請各典藏機構制訂館藏發展政策；二、建置理想之古地契分類模式；三、建立全國性古地契目錄檢索機制；四、推廣利用古地契檔案，使其使用與重視大幅提昇；五、建立古地契檔案之共享與合作機制，使古地契達到有效整理、確實運用的境界。
