Depending on the settings of your browser, an action such as reserving or copying materials or applying for an inter-library loan (ILL) will trigger the pop-up blocker, which will prevent you from proceeding any further.
* 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 or ILL. 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.")
* Even with the pop-up blocker enabled, some notification bars may not appear. In such cases, select [Tools] -> [Pop-up Blocker] -> [Pop-up Blocker Settings] from the browser menu. Then, enter the website address to be unblocked in "Address of website to allow," and click [Add]. Click [Close] to exit the screen.

Basic Search：You can search for materials by either Keyword, Title, Journal Title, Author, Subject, Publisher.
Advanced Search：You can select search fields and incorporate Boolean operators (AND, OR and NOT) between search terms in your queries.
Other Univ. : You can search books and journals held by other universities in Japan. It is linked to [CiNii Books] database provided by the National Institute of Informatics.
Once you enter keyword on the [Catalogue] or [Other Univ.] tab, the system shows a list of titles which begin with your entered characters. (The Suggest Function.)
Select one from the displayed potential matches and press the [Search] button to start the search.
You can perform a search from the advanced search screen by clicking the [Basic Search] button on the [Catalogue] 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.
You can search with the original spelling (with characters as they appear in materials). For alphanumeric characters, you can enter uppercase and lowercase characters. Single-byte and double-byte characters can both be entered.
characters
Japanese Kanji, Hiragana, Katanaka, Chinese characters (Kanji) ―Simplified and Traditional Hangeul Roman alphabet Cyrillic alphabet * Greek alphabet* Arabic script* Devanagari script, African languages* Southeast Asian languages*
＊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.
Select the Advanced Search at [Catalogue] tab and enter in the Keyword field the words included in the book title or author that you can remember.
If the search has too many number of hits, you can also refine your search by material type, holding library, author, publication year, classification, subject, publisher, language on the left side of the search result list screen.
When you don't remember Kanji When you are looking for Japanese materials and do not remember Kanji, try to search Kana - Japanese pronouncation characters. And there is also a way to search in Roman characters instead of Kana. Add "$" symbol to the header of each Roman alphabet keyword for search, the system automatically convert to Roman alphabet keywords into katakana keyword, and search in katakana.
When you remember part of the title If you clearly remember a part of the title, search for the words of title you remember by enclosing it in "*" and prefix the search value by "#". Tthe words enclosed with "#" marks , they are treated as though 1 word or a phrase. For example:
Search term
Description

Search results contain "internet" and "things" somewhere in title.
#*Internet of things*
Search results contain a phrase "internet of things" in title.
You are looking for the specific subject Click "Classification" in the lower part of the [Catalogue] tab.
