Availability of public libraries in a society directly and indirectly reflects the knowledge of the people. By examining the historical movement of public libraries in different regions, we are better equipped to identify the existing gaps in the field of libraries and thereby provide valuable directions in the establishment of new libraries. The scope of this study is to give a bird’s eye view and critical analysis of age-old public libraries which existed in pre-independence India. Further it provides a detailed accounts of selected prominent public libraries during the same period.

  • Omar Khalidi's Guide
    A Guide to Arabic, Persian, Turkish, and Urdu Manuscript Libraries in India Omar Khalidi Aga Khan Program for Islamic Architecture Massachusetts Institute of Technology Introduction hen scholars of Islamic studies think of manuscripts in Arabic W and related languages, they almost invariably turn to the great library holdings in the Middle East and Europe, forgetting that there are huge collections elsewhere, for example in India. It is estimated that in 2003, India possesses nearly one hundred thousand manuscripts in Arabic script spread over a number of libraries in various parts of the country. This number is in addition to what may be available in undocumented private collections. The Indian collections are renowned for the importance of many individual items, from some of the finest calligraphic and illustrated manuscripts of the Qur-an to autograph and other high-quality copies of major legal, literary, scientific, and historial works. Manuscripts produced in India but taken away ille- gally to Europe is another category altogether. Should various cultural properties of Indian Islamic origin found in foreign countries ever be returned to their place of origin, pre¨eminenceof many European mu- seums and libraries would be diminished. For instance, most of the Arabic and Persian, and Urdu collections in the British Library are of Indian origin.1 Similar is the case with Persian manuscripts in France’s Biblioth`equenationale.2 Poet philosopher Allama Iqbal lamented the theft of Indian books in European libraries in a memorable couplet: 1 Ursula Sims-Williams, “The Arabic and Persian Collections in the India Office Library,” pp. 47–52, in Collections in British Libraries on Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies, Durham, U.K., 1981.

(Prof. Tariq Ahmed) Supervisor ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all I thank Almighty Allah, the most gracious and merciful, who gave me the gift of impression and insights for the compilation of this work. With a sense of utmost gratitude and indebtedness, I consider my pleasant duty to express my sincere thanks to my supervisor Prof. Tariq Ahmed, who granted me the privilege of working under his guidance and assigned me the topic “Participation of Muslim Women in the Socio-Cultural and Educational Activities During the 19th Century in North India”. He found time to discuss various difficult aspects of the topic and helped me in arranging the collected data in the present shape. Thus, this research work would hardly have been possible without his learned guidance and careful supervision. I do not know how to adequately express my thanks to him.
