In January 2014, around 40% of the collection was deliberately burnt by unknown Islamist extremists. Following the incident ‘youths from all sects in Tripoli launch a campaign titled "Kafana Samtan" (Enough Silence), followed up by a Zoomaal campaign that collected about $33,000 for the restoration and modernisation of the library'. Reverent Sarouj commented on the campaign by saying : "While many tried to portray a stereotypical image of Tripoli, depicting it as an incubator for terrorism that rejects sectarian diversity, Tripoli's civil society proved its openness and preserved Tripoli's image as a civilised, inclusive [city], a model of coexistence”. The library was reopened in an official ceremony on 3 January 2015. (en)
