ARABIC COLLECTION

In this  issue of Research Review we publish short descriptions of a

further  forty  manuscripts from the  IASAR collection.  Four hundred and
forty manuscripts have  been accessioned as at  March  1964.

The work of collection  is still  being  carried out mainly by  al-Hajj

cUthman  b.  Ishaq Boyo,  but greater emphasis is now placed upon the  *
recovery of material of direct  importance  for the history of West Africa.
The  first four hundred manuscripts,  by contrast,  were collected at random,
and therefore  form a representative sample of works in Arabic script owned
by the  rttalams of Ghana.  All  items are  in xerox  copy.

Our  thanks again go to Dr.  B.  Martin and Mr.  K.  Odoom for their

assistance  in the cataloguing  this material.
