See, for example, Chase F. Robinson, Islamic Historiography (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003). The textbook includes four plates illustrating manuscripts in the Bodleian Library (33, 69, 107, 108, cf. viii), while in the third and final section (157–186), Robinson relies on indirect literary evidence to describe “How historians worked.” Yet he does not connect the indirect literary testimony with the concrete material evidence of any manuscript, and thus his captions do not even offer a date for the illustrated codices.

The call number (MS pers. X892.8 R86) is not stated in the article. In 1890 Avery and his wife had established the library of Columbia’s Department of Architecture in memory of their son Henry O. Avery (1852–1890). In 1902, Avery donated this formal copy to Columbia Libraries.

Since he provides call numbers, he gives for 11 manuscripts with an X call number and 12 Smith-Plimpton manuscripts. For the eight manuscripts with an X call numbers already on Martinovitch’s handlist, ʿAwwād limited himself to additional comments. But in four cases the listed call number does match the described manuscript, and I have not yet been able to solve this matter.
