FAQ(English)
The pop-up blocker appears when I reserve or copy materials or apply for an inter-library loan.
* The screenshot is from Internet Explorer 9. The pop-up blocker appears in different locations depending on your browser and version. For details, see the help of the respective browser.
The pop-up screen is used for all applications from OPAC, such as for a reservation, ILL, or new arrival alert. Therefore, enable pop-ups by using the following method. (The descriptions apply to Internet Explorer 9.)
- Temporarily allowing the pop-up blocker
Click [Allow once] on the pop-up blocker notification bar.
(Depending on the browser version, select "Temporarily Allow Pop-ups.")
* However, with this method, if the browser is closed once, the pop-up blocker is enabled when the browser is started again. Consequently, the same work will need to be repeated to apply for a reservation or ILL in OPAC.
- Always allowing the pop-up blocker
Click "Always allow" from [Options for this site] on the pop-up blocker notification bar.
(Depending on the browser version, click the notification bar, and select "Always Allow Pop-ups from This Site.")
* Safari users are requested to go to Security in the browser settings menu to confirm that no check mark is entered in the "Block Pop-up Windows" check box.
* If you are a Google Chrome user, click here.
After enabling pop-ups as described above, repeat the procedure for your application from the beginning.
What should I do if I know only part of the title of the material?
Select one from the displayed potential matches and press the [Search] button to start the search.
How do I search with an ISBN or ISSN (number)?
You can also perform a search from the advanced search screen by clicking the [Advanced Search] button on the [Bib Search] tab.
You can perform the search by filling in the ISBN/ISSN field.
ISBN (International Standard Book Number): This number identifies a book.
ISSN (International Standard Serial Number): This number identifies a serial.
What characters can I use with the [Bib Search] tab?
On the Japanese-language pages, you can use Kanji, Hiragana, Katakana, and alphanumeric characters. For alphanumeric characters, you can enter uppercase and lowercase characters. Single-byte and double-byte characters can both be entered.
Searches of Arabic script, Devanagari script, African languages, and Southeast Asian languages
Searches can use the original spelling (with characters as they appear in materials). Searches can also use keywords converted into Roman alphabet letters using the ALA-LC Romanization Tables of the U.S. Library of Congress. Some materials are registered in Roman alphabet letters only. An index is created for them. So if the search has no hits with the original spelling, convert the keywords into Roman alphabet letters, and perform the search again.
How do I search for materials when I don't remember the title?
If the search has an excessive number of hits, you can narrow it down with the [Classification] item from the [Refine Your Search] menu displayed on the left side of the search result list screen. In addition to using the classification item, you can also narrow down your search by material type, holding library, author, publication year, classification, subject, publisher, language, etc.
If the keyword search is unsuccessful, try using Search by Classification in the lower part of the [Bib Search] tab.
For example, suppose you are searching for statistics-related materials. From Search by Classification, you can narrow down the search to the materials in the following fields by selecting and performing the search with
"4: Natural science -> 41: Mathematics -> 417: Probabilities. Mathematical statistics."
What should I do if I want to use a combination of multiple search conditions (such as one including x or y)?
You can perform the following three searches by entering multiple conditions in a single search field or filling in multiple search fields (logical operation).
Entering multiple search values in one search field (enabled on the basic search screen and advanced search screen)
Logical AND search: Search for materials that simultaneously satisfy two or more search valuesEntry method: Connect all search values with " " (blank).Example: Search for materials containing both "Japan" and "America""Japan America"Logical OR search: Search for materials that satisfy any one of two or more search valuesEntry method: Connect all search values with "+" (plus sign).Example: Search for materials containing either "Japan" or "America""Japan+America"Logical NOT search: Search for materials that satisfy certain conditions and do not satisfy other corresponding conditionsEntry method: Connect all search values with "^" (caret).Example: Search for materials containing "Japan" but not "America""Japan^America"
Entering multiple search values in multiple search fields (enabled on the advanced search screen)
Logical AND search: Search for materials that simultaneously satisfy two or more search valuesEntry method: Enter search values in multiple fields, and select "AND" from the pull-down menu between the fields.Example: Search for materials containing "Japan" in the title and "Tokyo" in the author's nameTitle: Japan
Pull-down menu: ANDAuthor: TokyoLogical NOT search: Search for materials that satisfy certain items and do not satisfy other itemsEntry method: Enter search values in multiple fields, and select "NOT" from the pull-down menu between the fields.Example: Search for materials that contain "Japan" in the title and do not contain "Tokyo" in the author's nameTitle: Japan

Can I use only Roman characters to search Japanese language materials?
By placing a "$" symbol in front of Roman characters used for search values, you can convert the Roman characters into Katakana characters to perform a search.
- Writing in the official Kana romanization system and the Hepburn system is supported.
- The Roman alphabet doesn't correspond to the long vowel character. For example, please enter "$kiwado" not "$kiwado" when you want to get the same result in the "キーワード."
- _ means a blank.
Entry example | Search results | Example of hit |
---|---|---|
$genji | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "ゲンジ" (genji in katakana). | 源氏世界の文学 源氏物語の人と心 源氏物語の世界 |
$syamisen+$wahuu | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "シャミセン+ワフウ"(syamisen+wahuu in katanaka). | 玉菊とその三味線 和風 和風と洋式 |
$nihon_$amerika | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "ニホン_アメリカ"(nihon_amerika in katanaka). | 日米関係キーワード アメリカの心・日本の心 日米同盟 |
★Can I use materials whose holdings location for the OPAC search results is [Faculty office]?

- check the Kanji and spelling of keywords to see whether they are correct.
- Are searching by "Article title" or "Article author"? Try searching by serial title.
When you want to search by "Article title" or "Article author," try searching from the [Article Search] tab. In such cases, you may also be able to read the text of electronic journals from a personal computer. - If you still do not find the materials you are looking for, try searching from the [Other Univ.] tab or [Cross Search] tab.
If you can confirm that the library of another institution possesses the materials you are looking for, you may be able to go directly to that library to use the materials there or get them from the library.
★What do I do when I don't find the materials I'm looking for on the [Bib Search] tab? (Part 2)
1. Search the holdings of other university libraries and the National Diet Library, and apply to get the book or a copy (ILL copy request and ILL borrowing request) from the relevant library.
→ Perform the search from the [Other Univ.] tab or the [Cross Search] tab.
2. Search the holdings of your neighborhood public library and university libraries, and visit the relevant library directly.
→ Perform the search from the [Cross Search] tab by selecting a neighborhood public library, university library, etc.
3. Perform a search from a bookstore, etc., and consider purchasing the materials there.
→ Select a bookstore and perform the search from the [Cross Search] tab.
4. Search the holdings of libraries outside Japan, and get the materials from the relevant library.
* Getting a book or inter-library loan from a library or other such other organization outside Japan takes a significantly long time. Due to a variety of reasons, it may also be impossible to get materials from libraries outside Japan. For details, consult the library staff.
What is [Reserve Book] in the catalog search menu under the keyword input box on the [Bib Search] tab?
Reserve Book enables you to view a list of syllabuses, instructor-specified textbooks, reference books, etc.
You can change the display target from the pull-down menu.
What are the reviews displayed on the review list screen?
By clicking the RSS icon, you can check newly registered reviews in the RSS reader you normally use.
You can register a review from the bibliography details screen.
What are the tags displayed on the tag search screen?
You can search for a tag on the tag search screen to display a list of materials that have this tag.
Suppose you add a tag such as the following: "_____ seminar reference book" or "A must read for _____ class." Then, after a tag search, anyone can bring up the same list of materials.
For example, try clicking a tag in "New tags," "Recent tags," or "Popular tags." Then, materials that have these tags are displayed.
You can register tags on the search result list screen and the bibliography details screen.
What should I do if I want to search reviews and tags?
- See " New Tags" and " New Reviews" on the top page.
- Select "Review List" or "Search Tags" under the search bar on the [Bib Search] tab.
- In [Basic Search] on the [Bib Search] tab, enter a check mark for "Contains review and tag."
- In [Advanced Search] on the [Bib Search] tab, select "Review" or "Tag" from the pull-down menu and search the materials.
(In contrast to the basic search, you can perform a search with multiple conditions.) - Select "Review List" or "Search Tags" from the catalog search menu.
How do I return to the original search result list after a refined search from the left menu on the search result list display screen?
The following is the example narrowing Holding Libraries "library1".
Cancel the search conditions for this holding library. Then, to return to the original search result list, click the red x button in the blank area under "Selecting conditions."
Even if you have performed multiple refined searches, you can cancel any narrow-down search condition by using the above method, regardless of the order of the searches.
Suppose that you perform a refined search of a holding library, select a bibliography on the bibliography search result list screen, and then move to the bibliography details screen. Even after that, you can still cancel the refined search of the holding library and perform a refined search of another library.
