The University of Tokyo is implementing “Academic Commons”, the University of Tokyo New Library Plan, which will substantially expand the current General Library at the Hongo Campus in order to create a new hub for excellence in education and research.

The General Library, as it currently stands, was built after the Great Kanto Earthquake, although its history dates back to the founding of the university. Read about the chronological history of the General Library alongside the university.

We welcome donations of any amount to our special fund for "Academic Commons" through the University of Tokyo Foundation.
