The school library is one of the best environments for learning. Student loves school library and can feel inspired to learning. I designed the school library at Mesei Junior and Senior High School. It is not an ordinary one. The high ceiling, wide tables, wooden structures, earth-tone colors, and bookshelves that reach the top of the ceiling, truly gives the library a special atmosphere. There are a total of 12 million books available to the students. In addition, there are 65 different magazine titles and 3 million English books. This library also has e-books, Scholastic Bookflix and Trueflix, as the elementary schools in the United States. The school library produced all of English extensive reading program. Then the library produced a DVD that features English extensive reading. It was featured on NHK, a cable television program, and in some books. Students also borrow over 20milion title books in a year.
