Diocesan Library of Tunis, Religious library in Sidi Saber Street, Tunis, Tunisia
The Diocesan Library of Tunis operates from the basement of a former Catholic school, housing over 50,000 volumes on comparative religion and social sciences.
In 2001, Archbishop Fouad Twal established this library following the restoration of a building that previously served as a school for Sisters of St. Joseph.
The collection includes works in Arabic, European languages, Greek, Latin, and Hebrew, providing resources for theological studies and intercultural understanding.
The library maintains connections with the Carthage Studies Center and Institute of Arab Literature, offering research materials to students and scholars.
Books from the former Major Seminary of Tunis and Abbot Jean-Marie Guillemaud's collection form part of this specialized religious science repository.
