The library offers "Self-Study Books" recommended by faculty members. Submissions will be accepted at all times.
Notes
The decision of purchase is made based on our policy that the materials will be used by many students for learning purposes for a long period of time. Please note the following points.
- We purchase only one copy of a book for the designated campus in principle. You can request for book purchase only if Ookayama Library and Suzukakedai Library doesn’t have the item. Please check the Library Catalog(Ookayama Library & Suzukakedai Library) in advance.
- Recommendations should not include practical books (such as how-to books, examination question books), literature, and books which can be easily purchased by individuals.
- Due to budgetary constraints, requests for books costing more than 20,000 yen may be cancelled. Also, some books may not be available due to being out of stock or out of print.
- You can recommend up to 5 books per year.
- After we decide to purchase, Japanese books may take about one to two months to become available, and longer for non-Japanese books.
- Depending on price and terms of use, we may purchase an e-book. Please indicate your preferred media (e-book or print) in the comments section. We will use it as a reference.
