Library on rainy sunday.

| 9 Comments

1.jpgI went to library to return books on rainy sunday.

I always go to "Hamayu Library" in Hamamatsu city.

This is the latest library had been buit 4 years ago.

Library is definitely open on the weekend and holiday in Hamamatsu.

I don't know they have same schedule in all library in Japan.....

How about in a foreign country?

Is library open on sunday?

 

I love books in really, and also picture books.

Therefore, I continue read picture books to my children.

So, 5 years and 2 years children became love books.

They are looking forward to go to library very much!

3.jpgGo throught the entrance door, Immediately there is a gate.

Every library's book has a security tip. If you tried to go out without official procedures,

the buzzer will sounds rings.

To be sadness, it is problem that some people act very bad for books. It is like,

 takes away library book, gets book duty and destory some pages of books and so on.

 

4.jpgThis library has only 1 floor, but looks so large and has lots of bookshelf  into a room.

End of the room there are DVD shelf,CD shelf and study room, cafeteria. cafe

I wish I could look around every bookshelf  to say "Yahoo!"....

However, I always go to picture book place direclty,

which is opposite side from this phot.

And then, I couldn't do any othre shelf like always.

                                        Here is children book place. upwardleftwink

Wide space, well-lighted, easy to select books.

There are much book as a children book.

I told you before that I love picture book from long time ago.

I think it is art expressed by short sentence and beautiful picture.

Besides, it has to inspired children's pure mind and rich imagination, and

keep their mind to book.

Excellent book is really fantastic I swear!!

 

There are many famous picture book writer in Japan,

I love Shinta Cyo san !!heartheart01

He was born in Tokyo, and passed away 2005.

He wrote a lots of awesome books!downwardright

Don't you think his picture is unusual? upwardleft

Story is also very strange, it seems not made by adult....How can I say,

But when I read his books to my children, they always laugh out loud.

Some picture books are just has surface story and thin content.

Shinta Cyo san's books are not that kind boring book at all.

His pure soul spread out before us.

One more my favorite writer is Koji Suzuki san.upwardleft

He was born in Shizuoka prefecture. ( This is the prefecture which has Hamamatsu.)

His picture is different from others at all, story is also funny too.

When I read his book, it makes me that I am in kind of wonder place.

This one is my chidren loves too.

How about picture book made by France?

To my dissapointment, library has only few of them.

This is Franch old books isn't it? ↑↑

Most of Japanese library owns picture book written by Françoise.

In Hamamatsu, you have to make card in this phot in order to use library.↑

Each person can rent 12 books during 15 days.

In my family, we are 4 members, so we have 4 cards. 4x12=.....48!

I can rent 48 books at once!

It is impossible to read all 48 books in really, too heavy to bring them back to home.

I deeply feel how am I happy with lots of books in my life!

When you rent book, the person in charge of rent and back books who will

proceed the order in the service counter.

On the other hand, you can rent books to use this machine by yourself.

When you put all books on the bottom of rack,

machine read code whole books at once.

( back side of book, there is a special seal has a code)

 And then, put your card into machine, you can get a receipt for rent.

This is the all order to use machine.

Very easy! Quick!

How about library near by your home?

Nice blog you have here. I've enjoyed having a good look around :)

Hi!:) Answering your question, in my country (Poland) library is closed on sunday, such as in Japan.

Can I have one question to you? I love books, since two years I'm especially interested in japanese books. I really enjoy reading them. But I noticed, in Poland are translated only books written by writers for adult readers. I do not know any japanese children's author. Could you give me some example of contemporary japanese children's authors?

Best regards!:)

PS. Sorry for my English.

HI! Thank you for let me know abotu in Poland.
Well, How about Gomi Taro, Ken Wakayama, Kako Satoshi.
Kako Satoshi, When I was a child, I read this book many times.
Because I could know Japanese traditonal customs very well, and of course I loved his cute
bears character so much! ( but I don't know they are contemporary authors or not.)
I hope you will find some of it!

Thank you, Miko!:) I'll try to find some of it.

We gave up reading in Russia - library remains in schools or universities but public library mostly either closed or empty. May be only old people still attend it, young generation more interested in night clubs than old dusty books. I was keen on reading when i was young but now i prefer to download book from the Internet instead of going somewhere to find it, I haven't read something recently.

In japan, Also young people likes to go to club for dancing or meet new people.
I love reading book with touching real paper, not from internet.
Maybe, I am kind of old style people.

Very nice, I really enjoyed that. Do you know of somewhere I can read more about it?

This is a good little website I can not believe that I didn't stumble upon it earlier!

You know, in Belarus there are a lot of people who like reading. Many young people say that they prefer printed books to e-books. But they usually buy them and seldom borrow at a library. Our main libraries are computerized, but students and other people use them mostly when they conduct their research or write a thesis.
