Mojtaba Minavi's library; The Treasury contributed to the "Iranian nation" in the storm of wind and rain.

Mojtaba Minavi's library; The Treasury contributed to the "Iranian nation" in the storm of wind and rain.

The library's board of trustees described the damage to the books as irreparable and said that many of these old works are no longer on the market.

Professor Mojtaba Minavi, a prominent Iranian writer, researcher and copyist, decided in January 1355 to give the nation of Iran a treasure he had collected over several decades of scientific and research life, traveling to different countries and searching libraries and bookstores in Iran and around the world. He, who spent his life in the knowledge and protection of the Persian language, history and cultural heritage of Iran, did not want his valuable books, manuscripts and documents to remain in the possession of a few people after his death. Therefore, on January 26, 1355, he gifted his personal library to the residents of Iran and it was decided that this collection would be given to the Pardubasi Foundation.

Saya Rahimi.
