ANKARA, March 27 (KUNA) -- Most visitors of the Nation's Library of the Presidency are dazzled by the spacious presidential palace opposite the library, which is equally lucrative from inside.
The library, inaugurated in 2020, was built on a 125,000 square meter plot of land inside the presidential compound.
Borrowing of books and publications is un-allowed.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan often holds meetings with distinguished youth at a hall in the center of the 12-floor complex that keeps some 200,000 books, translated into 104 languages.
The library that includes a special section for children is visited by some 10,000 people per day. (end) akw.rk
