Qatar’s aspiration
Qatar Foundation helps to build the knowledge-based economy. Qatar National Vision 2030 strengthens the need that its people can participate fully in economic, social and political life
To reach a knowledge-based economy, Qatar’s population must become fully information literate and able to find and handle all information and knowledge needed, no matter if it is easy accessible or hidden in the deep web. Libraries are the key to this goal.
Qatar needs a strong source to access to the World's knowledge in Qatar and to contribute Qatar’s heritage to the World ‘s knowledge: the Qatar National Library - QNL

• QNL has more than 54 databases so far. Work in progress to add more databases in portfolios
• Arabic databases and non-mainstream databases are not available in Synergy - purchase new connectors
