Around 120 kilometers from Quetta, the Quaid-e-Azam Library in the picturesque Ziarat Valley is emerging as a hub of knowledge for residents.
The public library, named after the founder of Pakistan, fulfills a long-standing demand of the community.
The library was established through the personal interest of former Deputy Commissioner Ziarat Hamood-ur-Rehman. The library now serves as an academic center for the local population. It houses over 9,000 books on literature, history, culture, and political science, attracting both youth and elders for daily reading.

The officials said the library, originally established in 1906, had fallen into inactivity over the years but was restored last year after being affected during the 2005 expansion of the DC Complex. Abdul Mannan, assistant at the library, noted the importance of the facility in promoting learning and awareness.
The Quaid-e-Azam Library in Ziarat continues to illuminate new paths of knowledge, offering residents a valuable resource for education and personal growth.
