2002/4/1 SBSJ Homepage Construction
Though partly incomplete in its English pages, we have set up a brand-new Homepage for the Saul Bellow Society of Japan. We wish to express our deep gratitude to the people concerned who have helped us in many ways in making this site. We would also like to explain our policies in creating this website in order to ask further cooperation from its visitors.
1. We have started with minimum construction with the hope that it will grow as we grow.
2. We gave priority to simple and speedy functions and movements. However,
the photos are exceptions -- we used comparatively larger image files to
maintain their original quality.
3. We have tried to make the texts as easy to read as possible.
4. We have set up a bulletin board to facilitate information exchange.
Therefore your cooperation in the following would greatly be appreciated.
1. If you have any information on Saul Bellow and his work, please submit it on our Bulletin Board.
2. If you are a member of our society, please let us know when you have
a resume or an abstract of your paper or book. We will be glad to make
a hyperlink to it.
3. Please contact us when you wish your e-mail address and/or URL to be linked on our Members List.
4. If you have any Saul Bellow-related materials that can be used on our web page, please send an e-mail.
