Dear Colleagues,



With the help of Dr Majid Daneshgar (formerly Religion and Theology at Otago, now at the University of Freiburg) an inventory of Middle Eastern and Islamic books and manuscripts in Special Collections (mainly from the Shoults Collection) has been produced. Although a draft inventory, it reveals a small cache of materials (Urdu, Persian, Turkish, Arabic) that students, scholars, and those in the field of such studies, may be interested to tap into. The link is provided below.
