Fun Fact

 


The world's oldest operating library is in Morocco.

Dating back to 859 A.D., the al-Qarawiyyin library in Fez, Morocco, had long been off limits to visitors who weren't the select few of researchers and academics that had been granted access. However, in 2016, the world's oldest library, which houses a 9th century version of the Quran, finally opened its doors to anyone wishing to explore its ancient texts.
