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.
