JSAC Book Fair

JSAC wants to help folks find homes for Japan-related books they wish to donate and/or acquire those they are looking for. Please send a list of non-fiction or fiction books you are interested in donating or getting to jsac2022@ryerson.ca.

 

We will then connect those with volumes they are giving away with those seeking them, and the exchange can be made at the Conference.
 

Please use the Harvard citation format (tip: use cite in Google Scholar) for your lists.


We will be updating lists until the Conference begins. You can also bring books to the Conference so people can browse.
