NMC gifts National Archives collection of books

The National Archives was gifted a large collection of books and periodicals on the culture, heritage and history of the UAE by the Acting Director-General of the National Media Council, NMC, Mansour Al Mansouri.

The list of books include titles on UAE history, heritage, societal and cultural achievements, and other readings on media and communication.

The collection also includes a number of academic research letters, statistical reports, and photographs of state dignitaries.

A representative from the National Archives expressed appreciation for the specialised reference sources, saying the timely generous gesture comes as the UAE implements the initiative of President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who declared 2016 a 'Year of Reading'.
