ALIF Riad
ALIF Riad : Study/Culture Center
Last week ALIF (Arabic Language Institute in Fez) opened the doors of its new annex in Batha. The inspiring and tranquil space has been set up as a sanctuary from the hussle and bussle of the medina for ALIF students and members of Friends of ALC scheme as a meeting point, research centre and venue for cultural activities. Offering wifi, quiet spaces, national and international press, reference books, spiced coffee and a program of cultural happenings, ALIF Riad is a haven to be experienced.
Become a Friend of ALC by calling into the riad during open hours, with two passport size photos and a on-off fee of 250 dh (student and Peace Corps discount available) and becom informed of and inspired by ALIFs facilities and cultural agenda.

I think that this is an excellent development, however the closure of the facility for 2 hours in the middle of the day will dissuade many people from using the facility. An unbroken opening timespan would be much better.
