- Manuscripts are written memories lighting the scientific development of the period in which they were created. They are also works of art having unique examples of calligraphy, miniature, marbling and bookbinding arts. In recent years, various projects have been realized with the purpose of cataloguing and digitizing of manuscripts in some information centers of Turkey. These projects have developed librarianship of manuscripts in an appreciable way. Important steps have been taken in cataloguing, digitizing, preservation and upkeep. However, some problems stemming from services, which were produced in projects, and the structural situation of the manuscript librarianship, have occurred. In the study, listing the characteristics of the classical Ottoman manuscripts, general information on manuscripts projects, which have been realized in Turkey, are given. The study concludes with the suggestions on cataloguing and digitizing projects due to the manuscript projects and the problems that occur.
