Abstract

Cataloging manuscripts and generating various types of indexes represent crucial technical endeavors that furnish both descriptive and objective information. This process facilitates the cataloging and presentation of manuscript intellectual contributions on international platforms. Such indexes serve as conduits linking researchers, scholars, and manuscript enthusiasts, thereby streamlining their access to these documents. Cataloging also plays a pivotal role in advancing studies and research pertaining to the geographical, literary, and intellectual histories of specific subjects, thereby simplifying the efforts of editors and researchers engaged with manuscript heritage. Through catalogs, one can ascertain the number of manuscript copies available, their detailed descriptions, and the principal themes they encompass. This study aims to elucidate the concept of manuscript cataloging, its governing principles, the current state of manuscript cataloging in the Arab world, and the contributions of official institutions in Algeria to this field.
