‘Aboubakar Yaro, head of conservation at the Djenne Library of Manuscipts, poses next to Koranic scripts written on pieces of wood in Djenne, on September 1, 2012. Djenne is thought to have at least 10,000 manuscripts held in private collections, dating from the 14th to 20th centuries. Librarians from the northern Malian town of Timbuktu — besieged since April by Al-Qaeda linked Islamists — are urging the digitization of Djenne’s manuscripts.’ (Reuters/Joe Penney)
