François Mitterrand Library Faces Closure Risk Over €500M Renovation
The online retailer Rakuten France is actively searching for a buyer. Management indicated that if a sale is not finalized, the company may face closure. A strategic document reveals the extent of work needed to bring the François Mitterrand Library in Paris up to standard, citing dilapidated equipment, cut heating, and broken elevators. The Bibliothèque nationale de France site, which has not been renovated since its 1995 opening, requires 500 million euros in repairs. The CGT union warns of a risk of closure within three years.
