National Library of Somalia

The National Library of Somalia is, as its name suggests, the national library of Somalia. Established in 1975, it is located in Mogadishu.[1] It came under the responsibility of the Ministry of Culture and Higher Education[1] until the collapse of the government in 1991.
In 1983, it held approximately 7,000 books, little in the way of historical and cultural archival material, and was open to the general public. It was described in a UNESCO report as having "no regular acquisition budget", unqualified staff, unsuitable premises, and as being, on the whole, "little developed".[1]
