According to Filo, the restoration aims to highlight the values ??degraded over the years, as well as to create a comfortable environment according to the norms without changing the current function, to serve, according to the will of the donor Thoma Turtulli, children, and to enlighten generations, by combining traditional book reading with elements of technology and innovation.
