Historic buildings

This futuristic disc-shaped building is a world-renowned reading place with more than 2,000 seats for readers. The entire building is covered in a variety of scripts from around the world to reflect the multicultural heritage and spirit of the library. There are 8 million books in the collection. A traditional library tour begins in the lobby with a multilingual guide (English, French, Italian and Spanish). It is divided into 4 fixed museums, whose themes are antiques, manuscripts, former Egyptian President Sadat and the history of science. An important feature of the library is the interactive display of Egyptian cultural traditions, "CULTURAMA": nine huge computer screens form a semicircle to show people a panorama of war or history. The interactivity of the screen ensures that the presenter can explore the 5,000-year history, and when he clicks on specific content or major events, people can better understand the situation.
