About 70 000 books of the central library of Sighnaghi district were put in 1 200 sacks and thrawn in the basement of the first public school. In spring of 2009, as a result of the activities of the library personnel, the employees of the district administration took 30 000 books out of the basement and the rest 40 000 books got rot in the basement.
It is noteworthy that almost third part of the local budget is spent on the local authority in Sighnaghi district.
