Library
An important complement to the research and publications of AREU is the library. Since the formation of the unit, statistical publications, NGO reports, policy papers and similar materials have been accumulated and indexed in the AREU Library on-line bibliographic database (built using Greenstone open source software). The library is open to the public and collaborates with other libraries in Kabul to collect and make available publicly documents of research value on Afghanistan.,

Famous quotes containing the word library:
“That a famous library has been cursed by a woman is a matter of complete indifference to a famous library. Venerable and calm, with all its treasures safe locked within its breast, it sleeps complacently and will, so far as I am concerned, so sleep forever. Never will I wake these echoes, never will I ask for that hospitality again ...”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“A man’s library is a sort of harem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Madam, a circulating library in a town is as an evergreen tree of diabolical knowledge; it blossoms through the year. And depend on it ... that they who are so fond of handling the leaves, will long for the fruit at last.”
—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
