舟橋村立圖書館, Public library in Funahashi, Japan.
Funahashi Village Library is a public library in Funahashi, Toyama Prefecture, with three levels designed to serve different reading needs. The layout guides visitors from children's books on the ground floor through general collections to specialized materials on upper levels.
The library was founded in 1980 in a small space and later relocated to its current location in 1998. This move allowed it to significantly expand its collection and accommodate more visitors than before.
The library earned recognition from Japan's Ministry of Education in 2009 for excellence in children's reading program implementation.
Operating hours change with the seasons, offering more time for visits during warmer months and reduced hours in colder periods. The location near the train station makes visits convenient, especially for travelers passing through the area.
This library maintains the highest book lending rate in Japan due to its rare integration with Etchu-Funahashi train station, making it easily accessible to travelers.
