Use of materials from other universities Borrower services
The university libraries collect a variety of books and materials to provide all of our users with the academic information they need. However, there is naturally a limit to the books and materials one university can collect. We therefore have mutual cooperation agreements with other university libraries for the convenience of users.

At the University Library, we have instituted a reserved books system as a service to provide students with books and materials related to their classes. Under this system, the texts selected by teachers are arranged in the Reserved Books corner in the library on the campus where the classes are given.
Reserved Books system is operated in a single year so, please make sure that teachers select the books and materials every year.

We have instituted a corner for "Teacher-Recommended Books" in the University Library in the hope that many students will acquaint themselves with the pleasure of reading and come to enjoy the library more.
