Background of the Japan Source    ninks

The American School in Japan (ASIJ) provides an American-style  education to U.S., Japanese, Europeans and others who speak  English fluently.  Founded in Tokyo a century ago, ASIJ has long had  strong links to and interest in the culture which surrounds us.  For your use, we have developed various pages to provide  full text information about Japan in English.  The Japan Source was originally created by Vicky Downs,  the head librarian at ASIJ for forty years. It includes links to  hundreds of sites on the Internet which provide  information about Japan useful to students in grades K-12  and for those transitioning to lives in and around Tokyo.  If you have comments, questions or suggestions regarding  the material contained in ASIJ's Japan Source, please  contact the hslibrary@asij.ac.jp
