This report is for its celebration lecture.
The Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library (JENDL) has been being developed over 60 years. The JENDL-1 and -2 were developed for fast reactor design, and fusion reactors were added as a purpose of JENDL-3.x while JENDL-4.0 and JENDL-5 are general purpose files. According to version of JENDL, the file capacities have increased exponentially. Evaluation codes have been changed time by time. In this presentation, history of JENDL development is introduced as well as perspective of future appearance of nuclear data file.
