Newsletter, Number 48 (April, 1963)
:
The fîxecutive Committee has recently voted that as of January 1, 1963, only those members of the Center who pay dues of ten dollars or more will receive the Journal gratis. The change will go into effect with the renewal of individual memberships. This action is due to the very high cost of publication. Members or non-members may procure copies of Volume I of the Journal at $5.00 each so long as the edition lasts. This price, however, has little relation to fiscal realities. Volume H, which will appear toward the end of the year, will be sold to the general public at $8.00 and its distribution to members must be limited as stated above. All members will continue to receive the Newsletters.

In the western world, oriental manuscript collections are now mostly kept at universities, institutes and in national or regional libraries. Yet many of these collections were jumpstarted with the acquisition or donation of some private collection. An example is the oriental collection at Leiden University Library, which started with a legacy of around 60 oriental manuscripts by J.J. Scaliger in 1609. In fact, private collectors have always enriched library collections until this very day. The shelf marks of the oriental manuscripts in almost every major collection in the western world bear testimony to this. Dr Caro Minasian (d. 1973) was an Iranian physician and a passionate collector of oriental manuscripts. In 1968 he sold the greater part of his collection to UCLA (1507 items). In 1972 he bequeathed the remainder (959 titles) to the Ferdowsi library of Wadham College, University of Oxford. This Persian catalogue contains the first detailed description of the entire Minasian collection.
