Educated women have been banned from entering public libraries in the Hafar Al-Batin, Saudi Arabia.
Mehr News quoted Al-Alam reporting that women in Hafar Al-Batin have expressed concerns over ban on their entering to public libraries.
Nadia Aldul Rahman, an especial education expert told Ash-Sharq daily that Hafar al-Batin lacked good public library for citizens, and only a single public library is found in the city. “Borrowing books from private libraries is a difficult task, especially when with high prices, buying a book has been also difficult for people,” she added.
“women have been banned from entering to public libraries and if they want to borrow a book, their legal guardian should do it for them,” pointed out Nadia, adding that these guardians would lack necessary information as to the books to be borrowed, and her father or guardian should go to library several times in order that a woman use the reference section of the library.
