Kandahar University - Central Library

Central Library

Although each faculty has its library, there is a central library located in a three story building inside the university.

The central library is named after the writer of Afghanistan, Allamah Habibi. The library contains 42,000 books, most of which are in English language but some in Pashto and Persian. The library has a study room. Due to a lack of rooms and shelves in the building, most of the books are still stored in boxes.

Famous quotes containing the words central and/or library:

    “Friends serve central functions for children that parents do not, and they play a critical role in shaping children’s social skills and their sense of identity. . . . The difference between a child with close friendships and a child who wants to make friends but is unable to can be the difference between a child who is happy and a child who is distressed in one large area of life.”
    —Zick Rubin (20th century)

    “The fear of failure is so great, it is no wonder that the desire to do right by one’s children has led to a whole library of books offering advice on how to raise them.”
    —Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
