What's a "home library"?

At your home library, you can receive books or photocopies you requested. If you do not know which your home library is, please check Library List.

Your home library can be changed if your department and your laboratory locate on different campuses. Please consult with the library at which you want to receive materials.

e.g.) Your department is School of Engineering, your professor's department is Graduate School of Frontier Sciences and you mainly study on Kashiwa Campus. In this case, you may change the home library from Engineering and Information Science & Technology to Kashiwa Library. (Consult with Kashiwa Library.)
