Located in the Da Nang General Science Library at 46 Bach Dang, the ‘Da Nang Bookshelf’ was officially opened to the public last Saturday.

The bookshelf features a total of over 2,000 writings and scientific works, composed by writers in Da Nang and Quang Nam Province, on such aspects as literature, culture, arts, history, economy, and technology. In addition, other interesting works about Da Nang and Quang Nam, which are written by authors nationwide, are also introduced to local readers.

The displayed items include documents relating to historical development of Quang Nam- Da Nang, plus those relevant to Viet Nam's legitimate sovereignty over Truong Sa and Hoang Sa archipelagos.

The placement of this bookshelf aims to create an attractive cultural space for those who show the special love for Da Nang, and to encourage even more writers to compose their own works showcasing the beauty of the land and people of the city.

Moreover, the intention is to promote a healthy reading habit amongst local residents, which in turn will help to further the city's reading culture.
