Response to the spread of the new coronavirus infection

In 2020, due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, the University of Tokyo's school festival was held entirely online, so the secondhand book market has given up on holding it.

As an alternative, at the 2020 Komaba Festival, a booklet issued by the University of Tokyo Co-op Student Committee"CKiEx"was exhibited online.
