Kyoto University Library Network

This year, the Medical Library is displaying books selected primarily by the members of the Book Selection Committee
in a temporary “New Arrivals” section located in front of the reading room
on the third floor of the Medical Library.

We hope you will visit the third floor during your next visit to the library
and take a look at these books.
(Of course, they are available for loan. After being checked out, they will be returned to the general stacks.)

We are also featuring the newly selected e-books.
Since these are accessible from your research labs or other locations, we encourage you to make use of them.
