Contributing to the JLS Library
Unfortunately, due to the current situation with COVID-19, we don't accept any donation for the time being. Thank you for your consideration.
At JLS, we consider this library as an important teaching asset for education in Japanese and have put an effort to allocate a certain library budget. However, there is a limit to purchase new books due to the tight financial situation. Many of the books at the JLS Library are contributions made over time by parents and people who have helped run the school. We would appreciate your continued support for Japanese education by contributing your books to the library.
