University of Duke
Duke University, one of the well-established universities in the USA, attracts attention with its Middle East collection. Its library contains Arabic, Ottoman and Persian manuscripts, rare prints and archive documents. This collection is an important resource, especially for researchers working in the fields of Islamic history, Ottoman diplomatic tradition and literature. In recent years, Duke has been making these works available online through digitization projects and providing convenience to researchers. Thus, academics around the world can directly access sources on the Ottoman and Islamic civilization.
