Ibadi Studies<\/a> is a research blog launched in 2013 and maintained by Dr. Paul Love, a Historian teaching North African, Middle Eastern, and Islamic History at Al Akhawayn University<\/a> in Ifrane (AUI), Morocco. Interested in\u00a0 the Ibadi communities as well as in manuscript studies, libraries, and intellectual history, Dr. Love is the author of a monograph entitled Ibadi Muslims of North Africa<\/em> (Cambridge University Press, 2018). According to his profile on the blog, he is currently working on a new publication on the history of the Ibadi community in the post-formative period in Cairo.<\/p>\n

Although focused exclusively on one scholar’s research, Ibadi Studies<\/em> remains an interesting resource for anyone interested in the topic. The main thread displays numerous call for papers, conferences and workshops announcements, and articles about manuscripts or lithographs housed all over the world (including the McGill Library<\/a>, see image below).<\/p>\n

The Library Catalogs & Inventories<\/a> section dedicated to listing existing catalogues of Ibadi manuscripts and rare books, thus far includes lists for libraries in Djerba (Tunisia), Lviv (Ukraine), and Naples (Italy).<\/p>\n

The blog is in English, but some posts have abstracts in Arabic.<\/p>\n
