This bibliographical project intends to collect and distribute multilingual summaries of scientific publications first published in vernacular languages of Muslim-majority countries. Our goal is to close the gap between different scholarly traditions, and offer a tool for scientists and librarians to expand their resources while promoting the scientific work of researchers outside of Western academia.
The MCA project has published three books since its inception in 2009. In its current development under the Aga Khan Library, it will become an online database.
