Public Libraries Department works hard to provide cultural and
educational services through public libraries in all Municipality
regions, so that there will be a public library in each region.
Today, the Municipality oversees 31 public libraries that a number
of which cater exclusively to children. In total, these libraries,
which welcome some 1000 visitors daily, house more than half a
million books, 256 periodicals; have some 50,000 members, and serve
the needs of around 130,000 borrowers a year. |
