Abstract

<p>This study focuses on Machi-Libraries, where local residents bring books and build bookshelves for common use, and aims to find out the characteristics of the location tendency in four prefectures. The results show that, while Machi-Libraries in Tokyo and Kanagawa tend to be located close to train stations, some in Osaka and Hyogo are far from stations. This might be related to differences in urban structure, population density and the location of the facility to which they are attached. The results also suggest that the proximity of the Machi-Libraries to others is one of the location factors in Hyogo.</p>
