RESOURCES - FREE MATERIALS
 

The Japan Information Center is happy to provide materials to anyone living in our jurisdiction (IL, IN, IA, KS, MN, MO, NE, ND, SD, or WI). However, due to mailing costs, we appreciate your cooperation in following a couple guidelines:

  1. Make all of your selections at one time rather than multiple requests.
  2. If at all possible, pick up your materials in person (please wait for confirmation that your order is ready).

To request materials, please send your contact information to the following email address: jic@cg.mofa.go.jp.


For lending resources like books, videos, and CDs, please visit our Library page for more information.
