The National Library of Greece (Greek: Εθνική Βιβλιοθήκη της Ελλάδος, romanized: Ethnikí Vivliothíki tis Elládos) is the main public library of Greece, located in Athens. Founded by Ioannis Kapodistrias in 1832, its mission is to locate, collect, organize, describe and preserve the perpetual evidence of Greek culture and its uptake over time, as well as important representative evidence of human intellectual production. The NLG ensures equal non-access to these items based on the freedom of knowledge, information, and research.[2] There is one general manager who serves a four-year term. A board of trustees has seven members with a three or four-year term.[3]
