ABOUT MEGAWRA 'S LIBRARY

Megawra’s library has over 1000 books mostly on architecture, urbanism and art. This library was mostly made possible by the loan and donation of books from individuals and organizations. This is in addition to a collection of architectural magazines and periodicals with fairly comprehensive collections of local publications such as ‘Alam al-Bina’, Medina and Magaz. Our most recent acquisition was over 30 books on building types made possible by a grant from the Young Arab Theatre Fund. Library opening hours: 10:00 am – 16:00 pm. Closed on Friday and Saturday. By appointment between Sunday to Thursday, for appointments call: 01067021656
