Temporary Closure and Opening by Reservation Only for Earthquake-proofing Construction Work
As a result of the fourth phase of earthquake-proofing construction work on the buildings in the Library Block (including the III Main Building), usage of the reading room of the Multi-media and Socio-information Studies Archive has to be suspended.
■Temporary Closure
From October 21 (Monday) until October 25 (Friday) 2019
In order to prepare for subsequent opening by reservation only, the Archive will be closed completely during the week specified above.
■Opening by Reservation Only
From October 28, 2019 (Monday) until late October 2020 (dependent on the state of progress of the construction work)
While the construction work is being carried out, materials may be viewed in the office instead. However, due to the limitation of space, only one person is permitted to use the facility at a time. We therefore request prospective users to contact us in advance to make a reservation and specify which materials they wish to see.
