Egyptian National Agricultural Library

The Egyptian National Agricultural Library (ENAL)[1] was established in 1996.[2] One of four American national libraries, its other locations are Beltsville, Maryland and Washington DC.[3] It offers one of the most expansive agriculture and related science data in the world.[4] It is located on the first two floors of the Land Improvement Building in St. Dokki, Giza,[5] spans 6,200 square meters and can seat close to 300 people.[6] The ENAL is the link between all US Department of Agriculture field libraries and the national state land-grant network.[7] In 1995 – backed by the NAL – the ENAL produced a CD-ROM of the Nicoll's Birds of Egypt of 1930. This 2 volume 700 page work was published through the National Agricultural Text Digitizing Program.[8]
