This program was intially started in November of 1998. The Muslim women of Masjid Annur have been setting up Islamic displays in various county libraries around Sacramento, Folsom, and Roseville. Displays include art and architecture, calligraphy, Discover Islam posters, various Islamic books (i.e. Islam A Global Civilization, Understanding Islam and the Muslims, Muslim Cookbook, 16th Century Mosque, ... etc.), Muslim prayer rugs, in addition to other interesting items. So far this program has been a success. The reponse from the librarians and the public has been very positive.
Masjid Annur Educational Outreach needs more objects for the displays as well as Islamic books and videos to donate to the county libraries. Any donations for this program are welcomed and encouraged.
