- Q
- Won't the archives get full?
- A
- The Library makes effective use of space at its three facilities (the Tokyo Main Library, the Kansai-kan Library, and the International Library of Children's Literature) to ensure the closed stacks do not blow out. The Library also has long-term plans for extension of the closed stacks.
