Kabul University needs books

Kathleen writes \”This NY Times story (requires registration) is a brief but interesting article about Kabul University in Afghanistan, which has opened its doors to women for the first time since the Taliban took power. The library was decimated by Taliban censors — who had a habit of shooting books of which they disapproved — and a plea for texts is at the end. \”

There is actually a picture of a book that had been shot in the story.
