Sharjah Heritage Institute and Bibliotheca Alexandrina Partner on Arab Heritage Digitisation

The Sharjah Institute for Heritage and Egypt’s Bibliotheca Alexandrina are pursuing a partnership to develop the digitisation of Arab heritage and make it more widely accessible.

A delegation representing the institute was headed by Dr Abdulaziz Al Musallam, as part of its efforts to strengthen scientific and academic partnerships.

The cooperation centres on improving ways to preserve and safeguard cultural heritage, alongside expanding access to it through digital tools.

The initiative brings together heritage preservation and the wider dissemination of Arab cultural resources. Further details on specific projects or an implementation timetable were not provided.
