- Abstract:
- Over the course of the last year the Hill Museum and Manuscript Library (HMML) and the Roshan Institute for Persian Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park (Roshan Institute-UMD) have begun collaborating with the Raja of Mahmudabad family on the preservation of their important manuscript collection. The project will help protect the collection through both physical and digital preservation efforts and expand access to it through improved cataloging and digital display in HMML’s online manuscript reading room, vHMML. Funding for the various elements of this broader plan has generously been provided by the British Library’s Endangered Archives Programme (EAP), HMML, Roshan Institute-UMD, and the Islamic Manuscript Association.
