Once a year, Kyushu University Central Library plans to conduct a emergency drill.

This year, a comprehensive drill was held on August 28, assuming a fire.

During the comprehensive drill, we assumed that a fire broke out on the second floor of the Central Library, and experienced a series of procedures such as reporting a fire, putting out the initial fire, and guiding the evacuation. The library users were asked to evacuate to the outdoors together, and were given a disaster prevention book containing tips on what to keep in mind in a disaster.
