Qatar National Library Resources

The Qatar National Library (QNL) has a wealth of invaluable information and resources available to all members of the GU-Q community. As long as you have a valid Qatar ID, you will be able to access the QNL resources.

The Qatar National Library (QNL) is a great resource and right next to the GU-Q building. Did you know that you have access to all the QNL's on-site and online resources?

This includes certain online resources and databases, language resources, and on-site services.
