Ottoman Librarians and their Metadata

On 28 October 2021 the Center for Palestine Studies held a panel discussion with A. Tunç Şen (Columbia University) and Guy Burak (New York University) as part of our ongoing series, 'Readings in the Khalidiyya'.
The discussion focused on the inventory of the palace library of Bayezid II, located in Istanbul (early 16th century), the inventories of the library of the complex of Mehmet II, also located in Istanbul (15-16th centuries) and the inventory of the library of Ahmad Pasha al-Jazzar, located in 'Akka, Palestine (late 18th century).
A. Tunç Şen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History at Columbia University.
Guy Burak is the Librarian for Middle Eastern, Islamic and Jewish Studies at NYU's Elmer Holmes Bobst Library.
