Information and Documentation Centre

The Information and Documentation Centre is a fundamental pillar of Sebha University, owing to its pivotal role in taking the necessary steps and measures to achieve the university’s objectives while maintaining high levels of efficiency and coordination.

The Office of Information and Documentation was established in 2000 with the primary goal of providing data, statistical information, and documents, as well as processing them for analytical purposes. Its establishment was in accordance with the decision of the General People’s Committee (Prime Minister’s Office) No. 772 of 1989, which called for the creation of information and documentation centres across various institutions.

In 2010, following a decision by the President of Sebha University, the centre was reorganised into an independent entity, with the aim of building, managing, and developing an integrated information system.
