Program Read Japan
V roku 2010 pribudlo do fondu Oravskej knižnice Antona Habovštiaka 30 kníh z katalógu „100 books for understanding contemporary Japan“, ktoré približujú vybrané aspekty japonskej domácej i zahraničnej politiky, ekonomiky, biznisu, spoločnosti, kultúry, literatúry, umenia a histórie. Publikácie sme získali v rámci programu „Read Japan“ nadácie Nippon Foundation, ktorý je zameraný na darovanie kníh knižniciam po celom svete. Do roku 2009 bolo prostredníctvom programu obdarovaných 351 knižníc, medzi nimi i jedna zo Slovenska (Ústredná knižnica Filozofickej fakulty Univerzity Komenského v Bratislave).
