It was one of the libraries established outside Istanbul during the reign of Mahmud II and was built in 1827-28 by Mehmed Necip Pasha, who was famous for his services as governor of Damascus and especially Baghdad. In Tire, which is similar to Ottoman cities such as Manisa and Bursa in terms of its historical riches, the library, which is one of the last important examples of the many works created since the Principalities period, was established near the old small library named after Ibn Melek, one of the Ottoman scholars, and on the site of the Ismâil Efendi Madrasah.
The library currently has a total of 2282 Arabic, Persian and Turkish works, 1147 of which are manuscripts and 1135 of which are printed. 671 of these are valuable works provided by Necip Pasha and preserved in red leather cases after maintenance. With grants from various individuals and organizations, the total number of books has reached 11,330.
