The Jos Museum Arabic Manuscripts Collection is one of the oldest and largest manuscript collections in Nigeria.

With this book, we hope to advance and encourage the teaching of preservation law, shape the way the field is conceived, and create a practical resource that will be consulted by attorneys and other preservation professionals. Our approach to the subject is reasonably straightforward.
