Abstract: A cell observation information processing system includes: a tag acquiring section that acquires a tag set for searching for observation information acquired via an acquisition order at one time point; and a storing section that stores into an archive the observation information upon assigning a tag set thereto. The tag acquiring section automatically acquires or generates a possible tag set suggested to be assigned to the observation information as well as accepts an order to change the possible tag set to another tag set from a user, and, if having not received an order to change, acquires the possible tag set as a tag set to be assigned without accepting an input of another tag set by the user, or, if having received an order to change, accepts an input of another tag set by the user and acquires the accepted another tag set as a tag set to be assigned.
