Reserving Materials and Collecting Reserved Items

Learn how to reserve library materials online, when availability begins, how long items are held, and where to collect them.

How to reserve and collect materials

Materials can be reserved through the website. When a reserved item arrives, the General Media Center sends an email notification. Collection is available from the date the item becomes available for borrowing. For students covered by the 2025 Saitama Hatoyama Campus, Faculty of Science and Engineering information, collection is at the library reading counter. For the 2025 Tokyo Senju Campus, Faculty of Future Science information and the 2026 Tokyo Senju Campus, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Systems Design and Engineering, Faculty of Future Science, and Faculty of Engineering (Evening Division) information, collection is at the library service counter.

When borrowing becomes available

For the covered academic years, campuses, and faculties, the loan-available date for a reserved item is the date when the General Media Center sends the availability email.

How long reserved items are held

Reserved materials are held for 7 days in the covered cases.

Email notifications

Library-service communications are mainly sent by email. These messages include arrival notifications for reserved books and other materials, document photocopy requests, and interlibrary loan materials.
