【Important】Services During Temporary Closure (Updated May 22)

  • お知らせ

The University Library has been temporarily closed to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus infection.
However, we understand that the University Library is an important institution that supports the educational and research activities of researchers and students, and the early restoration of services is strongly desired.

For this reason, we have started to check out reserved materials from May 18, and from May 22, we will start mailing out materials to faculty members, graduate students, and students starting their graduation theses who have difficulty in coming to the library.

Please note that the service may be expanded or reduced depending on how the infection spreads in the future.
The library is expected to be open after June 30.
We ask for your understanding and cooperation as we continue to implement infection control measures and resume necessary services.
