The Middle East Librarians Association Committee on Iraqi
Libraries 
has begun the task of collecting images of library stamps
and other 
distinguishing markers identifying books and manuscripts
that belong 
to the Iraqi collections which are known or believed to
have suffered 
damage or loss during and after the recent war. For a
sample of such 
ownership marks, see:
http://www-oi.uchicago.edu/OI/IRAQ/mela/LibraryStamps/LibraryStamps.htm

We seek the assistance of scholars who have worked in Iraqi
libraries 
or with microfilmed materials from Iraq, and who can
provide images 
from their own photographic, microfilm, or xerographic
collections of 
library stamps and other distinguishing markers not yet
included in 
this index.

We also request that scholars who know of collections of
microfilm or 
other copies of documents originating in Iraqi libraries
inform us of 
the locations and contacts for these collections so that we
can seek 
their assistance.
