SOLUTION: Each time when the power supply of an information display device is turned on/off automatically, the display device is connected to a predetermined information distribution server via a communications network and acquires information to be displayed on the electronic paper. The device stores the acquired data and displays the information on the electronic paper. When a user turns on the power, the device again displays the information the display of which is kept in the electronic paper in the power-off period so that the device can accept access instruction to additional information related to the redisplayed information.
