据《纽约客》报道，这场摩苏尔图书馆复兴运动的契机是今年5月当地学生志愿者们组织的一个文化节。

In May, students organized a cultural festival in front of the library, where participants were asked to bring a book as their entry fee. Several hundred books were collected in one day. “We don't know each other, but all of us came together because we believe in Mosul.”

今年5月，学生们在图书馆门前组织了一次文化节活动，要求参与者每人捐赠一本图书作为入场费，一天时间就募集了几百本图书。“我们彼此互不认识，但是所有人聚集在这里是因为我们对摩苏尔充满希望”。

Though some of the precious materials in the library can never be recovered, Mosul Eye reminds us that rebuilding the space is an important step in Mosul's future.

虽然图书馆中一些珍贵的材料已无法复原，“摩苏尔之眼”依然提醒人们，重建图书馆是关系到摩苏尔未来的重要一步。

"We need to reconnect Mosul again with the rest of the world," he shared. "We will need the world to take the same amount of interest it has after ISIS took over the city. Don't abandon us now."

他说：“我们需要将摩苏尔与世界其他地区重新连接在一起，和被ISIS组织占领后一样，这里现在同样需要世界关注。不要现在抛弃我们。”
