Index Islamicus Online

Edited by C.H. Bleaney and others

Described as‚ "a boon of inestimable value to all scholars and students of the Middle East," Index Islamicus is the world's leading bibliographic database on all aspects of Islam and the Muslim world. It covers the main Muslim areas of Asia and Africa, as well as Muslims living elsewhere - just under a fifth of the world's total population - and their history, beliefs, societies, cultures, languages and literatures.

The Index Islamicus database indexes literature on Islam, the Middle East and the Muslim world. It is produced by an editorial team working at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, established to transmit knowledge about Islamic and Middle East studies, which have traditionally been part of the curriculum of SOAS. Records included in the database cover almost 100 years of publications on the world of Islam.

Material cited in the Index Islamicus includes not only work written about the Middle East, but also about the other Muslim areas of Asia and Africa, plus Muslim minorities elsewhere. Over 3,000 journals have been monitored for inclusion in the database, together with conference proceedings, monographs, multi-authored works and book reviews. Journals and books are indexed down to the article and chapter level.
