The National Library of Yemen is the principal national library of Yemen, affiliated with the Ministry of Culture of Yemen. Founded in 1968, it is located in the capital city of Sana'a, near Al-Tahrir Square. The library serves as the main repository for Yemen's national written heritage and provides reference and research services to the public.
The National Library of Yemen was established in 1968, following the formation of the Yemen Arab Republic. It operates under the authority of the Yemeni Ministry of Culture and has historically served as a center for the collection and preservation of Yemeni and Arabic-language publications. The ongoing armed conflict in Yemen since 2015 has severely impacted cultural institutions across the country, including the National Library.
The library's collections comprise books, periodicals, manuscripts, and government publications relating to Yemeni history, culture, and society, as well as broader Arabic-language materials. The library functions as a legal deposit institution, collecting publications produced in Yemen.
The library is located in central Sana'a. Due to the ongoing conflict in Yemen, current access and operational status may be limited. Specific contact information and operating hours are not reliably available at the time of this writing.
