The New Bibliotheca Alexandrina 

The conference will be held at the fabled Library of Alexandria, now being launched in a dramatic structure by the Mediterranean.  The circular disc, slanting towards the sea covers the largest reading room in the world and displays dramatic architecture on the inside as well as the outside. The beautiful circular granite wall has inscriptions of letters from all the alphabets and symbols of the world. The conference facilities are ample and well equipped. (see pictures)
