R. Ewing, then Vice-Chancellor of the University of the Punjab (1910-1917), suggested the recruitment of a trained librarian. The objective was to train those already working in libraries and to reorganize the Punjab University Library. The suggestion was approved by the university administration. Dickenson, who applied for the position in response to an advertisement published in the American press, was appointed for one year (Anwar, 1992; Qarshi, 1992; Ameen, 2007). Dickinson reached Lahore on October 12, 1915 and began a series of lectures on modern library methods in November 1915.

  • Bayazid Ansari and Roushaniya Movement: a Conservative Cult Or a Nationalist Endeavor?
    Himayatullah Yaqubi BAYAZID ANSARI AND ROUSHANIYA MOVEMENT: A CONSERVATIVE CULT OR A NATIONALIST ENDEAVOR? This paper deals with the emergence of Bayazid Ansari and his Roushaniya Movement in the middle of the 16th century in the north-western Pakhtun borderland. The purpose of the paper is to make comprehensive analyses of whether the movement was a militant cult or a struggle for the unification of all the Pakhtun tribes? The movement initially adopted an anti- Mughal stance but side by side it brought stratifications and divisions in the society. While taking a relatively progressive and nationalist stance, a number of historians often overlooked some of its conservative and militant aspects. Particularly the religious ideas of Bayazid Ansari are to be analyzed for ascertaining that whether the movement was nationalist in nature and contents or otherwise? The political and Sufi orientation of Bayazid was different from the established orders prevailing at that time among the Pakhtuns. An attempt would be made in the paper to ascertain as how much support he extracted from different tribes in the Pakhtun region. From the time of Mughal Emperor Babur down to Aurangzeb, the whole of the trans-Indus Frontier region, including the plain and the hilly tracts was beyond the effective control of the Mughal authority. The most these rulers, including Sher Shah, himself a Ghalji, did was no more than to secure the hilly passes for transportation. However, the Mughal rulers regarded the area not independent but subordinate to their imperial authority. In the geographical distribution, generally the area lay under the suzerainty of the Governor at Kabul, which was regarded a province of the Mughal Empire.
