That same year, all Western books in the shogunate's collections were relocated to the Bansho shirabesho to be kept there. The various ''daimyô'' houses were then ordered to submit lists of the Western books in their collections, along with copies of translations that had been produced. The shogunate also ordered that all newly-published Western books and translations had to pass through inspectors (or censors) at the Bansho shirabesho.<ref>Ishin Shiryô Kôyô 維新史料綱要, vol 2 (1937), 203.</ref>
