This is probably the best
place
to search for books published in Japan. Almost totally in Japanese. But
still useful if you and your computer only work in English. You will
get a lot more out of this website if you can understand at least some
Japanese. The website will be useless probably if your computer cannot
display Japanese characters. |

Unfortunately this website
is
not English-friendly, but this is the best source for Japanese ISBN
searching and information. |

National Diet Library |
Like the British Library or the U.S.
Library of
Congress. As with the above websites, this one is not totally
alphabet-friendly. Help
searching NDL. |

periodical titles.). Click the link: "Click Here for Advanced

Intercontinental Marketing

This is a totally biased
plug
for the company from which JPGS was born. IMC handles all kinds of
publication import/export, mostly English but some Japanese and a
little Chinese. Supplies companies, libraries, booksellers and perhaps
you. (imcbook LLC) |
