    Dear Haya
    I guess to access the library at the ISc you might need to be a member. Why dont you look them up on the net, they have an active website.
    The abudhabi cultural foundation has a good collection of books, they used to be near the Al Muhairy centre in Abu Dhabi but now they have moved to somewhere in MUsaffa. If you can track them down by calling 181 it might be worth the effort. They charge a very nominal fee for membership (reference books). Childrens books are free!

    Thought of sharing ..

    There are a few libraries in Abu Dhabi

    1. Shaheen Library: 02 676 89 95
    Yearly fee 150 dhs (100 Dhs deposit - refundable)
    Open on all week days from 9 am to 1 pm and 5pm to 10pm and Fridays 5pm to 10pm
    Behing Speed Computers near European Exhibition in Electra Street

    2.. National Library: 02 657 60 34
    Free membership (400dhs deposit - refundable)

    I dont have any more info reagarding those, but read in a site that thay are a bit expensive.
