The large library that existed in ancient Egypt was the Library of Alexandria, located in the city of Alexandria. Founded in the 3rd century BCE, it was part of a larger research institution known as the Mouseion, dedicated to the Muses and the pursuit of knowledge. The library aimed to collect all the world's knowledge and housed countless scrolls on various subjects, making it one of the most significant centers of learning in the ancient world. Its loss, often attributed to a series of fires, marked a major setback for scholarship in antiquity.
