About Libraries Commission

The Libraries Commission was established in February 2020 as one of the Ministry of Culture's 11 sector-specific Commissions. The Commission oversees the development of the libraries sector, including proposing and implementing a sector strategy within the National Strategy for Culture framework, proposing draft laws and regulations, and amending and submitting regulations to the Ministry of Culture to complete statutory procedures. Libraries have always played an active role in spreading knowledge and cultures, as they are the best witness to the prosperity and progress of nations. Given the community's need for libraries as civilized platforms that provide them with knowledge, we at the Libraries Commission seek to supervise, organize, and transform libraries into a cultural resource for all segments of society as well as a key source of scientific research and studies of all kinds.
