The procedures for entering the Research Collections and using Private Reading Rooms* at the Central Library will be changed on March 27th, 2025.
\n*Eligibility for Private Reading Rooms: Faculty and staff, graduate students, and Green Card holders.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
    New gates will be newly installed at the entrance.
    \nPreviously, patrons were required to present their student ID, faculty\/staff ID, or library card to a library staff at the entrance to the Research Collections. From March 27th, 2025 on, new gates will be installed for a smoother entry. Patrons can enter the library by scanning a library ID card.
    \nPlease refer to\u00a0[Central Library]\u00a0<\/a>Using\u00a0the Research Collections<\/a><\/b>\u00a0 (No.9)<\/a> for details.
    \n\"\"<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    “Key box” for Private Reading Rooms will be installed.
    \nIn exchange for a key to the private reading rooms, patrons have been asked to present and deposit their student ID or faculty\/staff ID, or library card. From March 27th on, a “key box” for self pickups has been implemented. From now on, qualified patrons can check out and return the key themselves with the scan of a library card.
    \nPlease refer to     [Central Library]\u00a0<\/a>Private Reading Rooms<\/a><\/b>\u00a0 (No.10)<\/a> for details.
