Located within the Nest student residential complex, the library serves one of Sharjah's most vibrant academic communities, expanding the reach of HoW’s knowledge-sharing platforms and broadening access to knowledge, while fostering a culture of learning and research among students and scholars near the University City.

HoW will continually update the available resources, host cultural events, book clubs and workshops.

The launch was marked by a ceremony attended by Marwa Al Aqroubi, Executive Director of the House of Wisdom, and Amit Arora, Chief Operating Officer and Director of Hospitality and Entertainment at Arada. The event underscored the importance of the initiative in advancing lifelong learning and equipping students and researchers with access to a broad spectrum of knowledge resources.
