The '''Center for Documentation and Information of Aceh''' ({{lang-id|Pusat Dokumentasi dan Informasi Aceh}}), known for its collection of rare books and manuscripts chronicling the heritage of [[Aceh]], was completely [[Library damage resulting from the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake|destroyed]] during [[2004 Indian Ocean earthquake]]. Only half of the building remained standing, and the entire collection was swept away. A team from the [[National Library of Indonesia]] visiting in January 2005 was able to salvage only three books and one sheet of the genealogy of the [[Muslim]] kings of Aceh. These were taken to [[Jakarta]] for restoration.<ref name="ALA | Tsunami-Report from Indonesia">[http://www.ala.org/ala/aboutala/offices/iro/iroactivities/tsunamiindonesianreport.cfm ALA | Tsunami-Report from Indonesia<!-- Bot generated title -->] ({{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110605053402/http://www.ala.org/ala/aboutala/offices/iro/iroactivities/tsunamiindonesianreport.cfm |date=5 June 2011 }})</ref>
