Head of the National Library and Archives Organization of the Islamic
Republic of Iran Eshagh Salahi met with Armenia's Culture Minister
Hasmik Poghosyan in Armenia on Tuesday, November 13, 2012.
IBNA: Salahi has traveled to Armenia to meet with the country's top
cultural officials.
During the meeting, the two sides exchanged views about the two
countries' cultural relations with a focus on books.
In the meeting, Salahi proposed that the resources available at Iran's
National Library about Armenia become accessible for Armenians and
vice versa.
For her part, Poghosyan stated that a large festival was arranged in
Armenia highlighting books. "This year, we had a busy year in terms
of the number of conferences and seminars with Iran present at some,"
she said.
As she said, one of the outcomes of Iran's presence is the popularity
translations of Armenian books into Persian and vice versa have gained
in Armenia.
She further underlined Salahi's statement about the number of the books
kept at Iran's National Library, and said, "Like Iran, we enjoy almost
the same number of books in our national library which indicates the
two countries' care for culture and literature."
She also noted appointment of the head of Iran's National Library
by the President as a sign that high ranking officials in Iran care
about books and culture.
She proposed that manuscripts about Iran and Armenia should be
digitally scanned and sent to the libraries of the two nations.
