Differently to the building of the Komaba Library, there is a Storage Stack Room to store materials.
You will not be able to enter the room, but you can read/borrow the materials by the following methods.

The materials when searched on University of Tokyo OPAC have the location of “Komaba.Lib.Stor.”, ”Komaba.Lib.Stor. Large.”,“Komaba.Lib.Ichiko-Bunko”, or “Komaba.Lib.Stor-Ref.” are located in the Storage Stack Room.

*These materials are “Not for Loan” materials, so they can only be able to read in the library. Japanese-bounded books and books in bad conditions can only be read in the Special Collections Reading Room(from 9:00-16:50 on weekdays). Also, there may be cases when some time may be required to check the materials.

Please search on the University of Tokyo OPAC first.
When the material is not only located in “Komaba.Lib.Stor.”, but also in “Komaba.Lib.Openshelf.” and “Komaba.Lib.Stack.”, please use the materials in the latter locations.
