W Welcome to the Nara Public Library. We are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. We are closed every Monday. There are free children’s classes from 10 to 11 a.m. on Wednesdays.

M Okay, class. Thanks for all the great ideas. As you said, we should turn off the lights when we don’t use them. Also, to save water, let’s use cups while we brush our teeth. Next, we should recycle paper, cans and plastics. Lastly, we should try to reduce food waste. Let’s remember these things to protect our environment.
