IUJ’s library, housed in Matsushita Library and Information Center (MLIC), is one place in Japan that holds getting added to collection, duplicated course reserves and unused items are donated regularly under a program sponsored by JASPAL (Japan Association of Private University Libraries) since 2008. Recently, about 75 volumes were donated to Visayas State University where one of alumni works as a professor. We believe that our resources will be useful for students at his university.
