The Sonkeikako Bunko is the private family library/archive of the Maeda family, former lords of Kaga han. The archive is today held at the Mayeda Ikutoku-kai Foundation headquarters in Komaba Park in Tokyo.
During the Edo period, it was the largest private library in Japan outside of that of the Tokugawa shogunate.[1]
