Al Karama Library

In response to recent discussions regarding the Al-Karama Library, the Central Shuna Municipality clarifies that the decision to demolish the building was not made hastily. It followed a thorough assessment of the situation and was based on official observations and complaints from the Ministry of Education. These complaints indicated that the site was no longer being used for its intended cultural and educational purposes, but had become a site of inappropriate practices and behaviors that contradicted societal values.

Furthermore, the building had been closed for an extended period and its contents had been completely stolen. In addition, there had been no significant interest from students or readers in the area, rendering it ineffective as a cultural facility serving the community.

Out of the municipality’s commitment to utilizing public spaces for the benefit of the community, the demolition decision was made to pave the way for a project that will serve a wider segment of the local population. A modern sports field is currently under construction on the site, providing a safe and suitable recreational space for youth and residents.

In addition, a cultural alternative has been established by creating a library within the Shuna district building to ensure the continued provision of cultural services to the community. The Central Shuna Municipality affirms its unwavering commitment to serving the residents of the area and its continued readiness to receive feedback and suggestions that serve the public interest.
