YEREVAN, JULY 17, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Poet, Narekologist
Hrachya Tamrazian was elected as the Director of the Mesrop Mashtots
Matenadaran-Institute of Ancient Manuscripts at Matenadaran Board's
July 17 sitting, with a secret ballot, with 27 votes in favor,
6 opposed and one invalid.
Hracyha Tamrazian, answering the question of journalists, in
particular, of Noyan Tapan, of what development the cooperation between
the Hill Library-Museum of Manuscripts and Matenadaran will have,
said that the contract of that program has been already juridically
invalidated. He considers that Matenadaran should implement that
program on the spot, with its own resources, and the structure's
exclusive rights should be taken into consideration: "naturally,
Matenadaran cannot cooperate with another organization on the basis
of co-ownership."
Besides, the new director said that in the future he should try to
ensure centralization of electronic copies of all Armenian manuscripts
of foreign countries in Matenadaran. And in this respect, in his words,
Matenadaran can become a center of Armenology.
H. Tamrazian said that digitalization of manuscripts has already
started in Matenadaran, through the device donated by benefactor
Pierre Guyumchian.
H. Tamrazian considers that first of all he should solve the problem
of involving young specialists in Matenadaran, regulating the issue
of change of generations.
