Note that contributions to the Savelibrary Wiki are not accepted from outside Japan. However, If you would like to send a message to our colleagues in Japan, please email your message to arg.editor@gmail.com. There are volunteers to translate your English message, so please do not worry about that.
Thank you very much,

Libguide on Earthquake and Tsunami
I created a libguide on Saturday as I was trying to watch the NHK news and keep up with email inquiries about how to get information. This isn’t a beautiful guide or one that was finely crafted over weeks, but if it is helpful to you and/or your students please feel free to link to it.
