(21 Sept 2020) The Queen Mother Library was inaugurated on Monday at the Sleu Rith Institute (SRI) on Preah Sihanouk Boulevard in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
The library was established by the Documentation Centre of Cambodia (DC-Cam) and is named after Queen Mother Norodom Monineath Sihanouk.
The library consists of thousands of books and boxes of documents that historians say preserve Cambodia’s history.
DC-Cam Director Youk Chhang told The Post on Monday: “In this library, we have documents of the Khmer Rouge era, documents related to the late King father and documents of Cambodian families. We are storing them to preserve Cambodian history,” he said.
