Description
In the spring of 1978, when I1 was in Jerusalemwith a team
engagedin conservingand photographingMamlukdocumentsrecently discoveredin the IslamicMuseumof al-Haramal-Sharif,2I was
fortunateenough to meet Mr.Haydaral-Khalidi,a formerofficial
in the PalestineMinistryof Educationand memberof one of the
most prominentArab familiesof Jerusalem Being informedof my
interestin medievalArabic manuscripts,Mr.Khalidi invited me to
visit the Khalidi Library, a family library of which he is chief
custodian, located in the Old City of Jerusalem I was, of course,
delighted to accept the invitation, as I knew the Khalidi Library
by rumor to be one of the richest private collections of Arabic
manuscriptsand books anywherein the world, and my interest in
viewing it was considerablyheightened by the claim which I had read that it consists of "12,000 books and manuscripts,written in
Arabic, English, French, Persian, and Turkish"
