Library

Library
Libraries. Libraries are the place where international students spend the most time during their time studying in the United States. They are used not only to borrow books and browse materials, but also as a place where they can study more comfortably than in their dorm rooms. Many universities have computers, audio equipment, and video decks in their libraries, and it is not uncommon for libraries to have a coffee corner. The quality of the library is also one measure of the quality of the university itself, and the Princeton Review (an American organization providing information on university admissions and test preparation) has even published a ranking of universities with excellent libraries (number one is Harvard University).

Japanese:
図書館。アメリカ留学生活において、最も長い時間を費やす場所といってもいいほど、留学生がお世話になるのが図書館です。本を借りたり資料を閲覧したりはもちろん、寮の部屋よりも落ち着いて勉強できる場所としても活用されます。図書館には、コンピュータやオーディオ機器、ビデオデッキなどを設置している大学も多く、喫茶コーナーがある図書館も珍しくありません。図書館の質は、大学の質そのものを測る一つの尺度でもあり、Princeton Review(アメリカの大学進学情報・テスト対策機関)では素晴らしい図書館をもつ大学のランキングを発表しているくらいです(ちなみに1位はHarvard University)。
