The Al Sa’eh Library is a library founded in 1970 and located in Tripoli, Lebanon by Reverent Ibrahim Sarouj, Priest of the Orthodox parish. It held about 80,000 books and manuscripts. The Library collection is diverse with regards to languages (Arabic, Italian, English, French text books), content (Literary, science, Christian and Muslim theology books and manuscripts), and publishing historical periods. On January 2014, around 40 % of the collection was burnt by unknown perpetrators. . Following the incident ‘youths from all sects in Tripoli launch a campaign titled "Kafana Samtan" (Enough Silence), followed up by a Zoomaal campaign that collected about $33,000 for the restoration and modernisation of the library'.〔http://al-shorfa.com/en_GB/articles/meii/features/2015/01/23/feature-02〕 Reverent Sarouj commented on the campaign by saying : "While many tried to portray a stereotypical image of Tripoli, depicting it as an incubator for terrorism that rejects sectarian diversity, Tripoli's civil society proved its openness and preserved Tripoli's image as a civilised, inclusive (), a model of coexistence”.〔 The library was reopened in an official ceremony on the 3rd of January 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tripoli’s Torched Library Finally Re-Opens in Lebanon · Global Voices )〕 == See also == * List of libraries in Lebanon * List of destroyed libraries 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Al Sa’eh Library」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
