Subject: 10th Islamic Manuscript Conference

Dear Colleagues,

The Tenth Islamic Manuscript Conference: Manuscripts and Conflict

Celebrating the Tenth Anniversary of the Islamic Manuscript Association

31 August-2 September 2014, Magdalene College, University of Cambridge, UK

With a Special Additional Programme on 3 September 2014, including a
Workshop on Disaster Planning for Islamic Manuscript Collections

The conference programme has now been published online<
http://www.islamicmanuscript.org/annualconference/2014conference/programme.aspx
>.

Poster presentations

Students and other interested attendees are encouraged to submit posters
about their work with Islamic manuscript collections for presentation at
the conference. More information about this is available here<
http://www.islamicmanuscript.org/annualconference/2014conference/posterpresentations.aspx
>.

The Tenth Islamic Manuscript Conference will be an occasion to reflect on
progress in conservation, preservation, cataloguing, digitisation and
research relating to Islamic manuscripts and manuscript collections during
the decade since the founding of the Association, and to look ahead to
anticipated developments in these fields over the next ten years. The
conference's special theme - Manuscripts and Conflict - will also
constitute a timely opportunity to consider the above subject areas within
the intensifying contexts of acute social and political instability or
military conflict. Invited keynote speakers, round table sessions, poster
presentations and workshops will promote active participation in a
cutting-edge discussion of these subjects.

The programme in Arabic and further information about registration will be
available soon.
