No English books, and not very large, but it's the closest location to my home in Suginami-ku. It actually occupies three floors, but it's something of a pencil building. On the hours, I wanted to add that their regular vacation days are the second Thursday and last Friday of each month. The picture shows the after-hours deposit box and the library side of the entrance sign. I'm giving it a weak four stars on the basis of the big collection of 手塚 Osamu comics.

Aside from the fact that the building is old, the staff are very responsive and the facility is easy to use. I guess the minus point is that there aren't many places to read it. Recently, probably due to CORONA, there was a device that can sterilize books. Please continue to improve in many ways! From a library fan.

Earthquake-proofing work has also been carried out. The building seems old, but it feels clean. The elevator is small. If you are concerned about infection control, the stairs are a good option. 3 floors of the library, 4th, 5th and 6th floors. WiFi available. There aren't many seats, but there are several. It's pretty full. It may not be suitable for studying. The librarians are kind. Well advised. Since I changed from my previous company, I have been able to spend more time with them, which is helpful. The ward office branch is located below, so it's convenient.

An old, old employee in his 60s makes up groundless grounds and warns users to make them uncomfortable. All the other employees are nice, but that old guy is acting like a dork and it's disgusting. It's so creepy. The atmosphere of the library is ruined because of you.
