2008年4月中央研究院臺灣史研究所購得某情治人員遺留的相關檔案，其中有二二八事件期間「保密局臺灣站」站長、各組情治人員在臺灣各地所調查的史料，這是南京中央政府取得事件報告的管道之一，也是目前所僅見各組情治人員報告的原型。共有223件，約1,600多頁。2009年4月2日起開始每個月一次的解讀工作，迄2013年11月（約4 年半）召開學術研討會，並將其成果7篇分兩期，刊登在《臺灣史研究》上。這批資料中的情治人員，均用假名；且未能瞭解南京總局決策過程；有些情資難以檢證是真是假，使得研究受到了某些限制，使用這批資料時不可不查。 　　本文旨在介紹這批資料的性質、特色、使用時的盲點，並介紹目前研究的狀況、產出的論文，除了為本刊兩期的「二二八事件專號」所使用的資料做介紹外，也預告2015年6月前要出版《保密局臺灣站二二八史料彙編》第一冊。

The article introduces nature and characteristics of historical materials on the 228 Incident solicited by the Institute of Taiwan History, Academia Sinica in April, 2008. These historical materials were part of the legacies of an intelligence officer of the Secrets Bureau, Taiwan Branch and comprised investigation reports from the head of the Bureau as well as operatives of its different divisions. These reports constituted one of the channel through which the Central Government in Nanking obtained information and intelligence regarding the 228 Incident. They were also the only prototype of intelligence reports currently known. However, the reports were provided by agents using aliases and the decision-making process of the headquarters of the Secrets Bureau in Nanking remained largely enigmatic. These problems made the authenticity of the intelligence hard to verify and posed limitations to the research. Hence, special caution must be taken and detailed investigation had to be conducted when using these historical materials. Analysis of the 223 reports of more than 1,600 pages began in April 2009. An academic seminar was held in November 2013 and 7 related research articles were published in two special issues of Taiwan Historical Research. The first volume of 228 Incident Historical Materials of Secrets Bureau, Taiwan Branch will be published in June 2015.
