Zehra Polat: "I'm a university student. We really needed such study areas such as the library, and it is a great advantage for us, especially in the subway. Another one opened last month. He is also very efficient, we toured there too. It is also very nice to have internet access, especially in the subways… We are very happy. Thank you very much to our President.”

Nurgul Kalkan: “I think it will be a very good opening. Having these libraries has definitely been a huge advantage for young people. Our reach has been very good. Especially the availability of internet and computers has been a very good opportunity for us. A great advantage especially for university students. I would like to thank my Mayor Mansur for giving us such an opportunity because I did not think about our comprehensive libraries at a sufficient level.”

Ahmet Balçırpanli: “When you look at the situation, we want to go abroad because these opportunities are provided in many European countries, European countries where we want to go. We are proud to see such actions in our city, in Turkey's capital, and to provide an opportunity for young people like us. So, we think that we will get out of the subway and meet our friend, for example, we have 10-15 minutes, maybe half an hour. What young person wouldn't see an opportunity to come here, read a book, research something on the computer and then meet up with a friend, instead of waiting outside? This is an opportunity made for us by the municipality.”

Taha Arda Cakir: “I think this place is very beautiful. Our President Mansur's thoughts on this subject made us happy that our friends at the metro station could come here together, research and learn something, while your friends were waiting. It makes us all happy to be with us and support us. Our transportation area is the subway. In this regard, there is a comfortable environment in which all students can enter and exit… During transportation, we all spend most of our time here. Our waits and meetings take place here. In the meantime, it will be a big win for all of us.”
