EtTemeemi added that over 950 manuscripts have been maintained preventively in 2018, noting that the total number of manuscripts the center has restored – since it was established in the second half of 2016 until the end of 2018 – stood at 65, which is over 21,000 pages, in addition to preventatively maintaining over 1750 manuscripts.
