Al-Anqari praises launch of Saudi Arabia Encyclopedia
Khaled Al-Anqari, minister of higher education, Friday lauded the issuance of the first edition of Saudi Arabia Encyclopedia, describing it as a comprehensive work to introduce the homeland of the two holy mosques and highlight its development over the years.
In a statement to mark the event, Al-Anqari said Arab libraries would now be enriched by this work. The encyclopedia will provide accurate information covering all historical, geographical, education, economic and cultural fields for its readers and researchers.
Not only Arab readers and researchers but other countries also need to have correct profile of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, he said.
This giant project is yet another cultural addition to the Saudi achievements under the leadership of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
