The Vatican is not the oldest Library in the world. There were many before then. Libraries have dated back to Ancient Times, Such as the times of the Ancient Greeks and The Ancient Romans. But even before that, In the times of the Cavemen, There were libraries. Notes and valuable information were etched onto rocks, and stored in a safe place. So, As a conclusion, No, the Vatican is old, and is big, but not the Oldest libraryin the world. Thanks!
