    Ten Manuscripts Granted to Matenadaran



    YEREVAN, JULY 30, ARMENPRESS: The `Phoenix' Human Resources
    Development All-Armenian Foundation granted today 10 manuscripts,
    among them a copy of Grigor Narekatsi's `Matyan Voghbergutyan', made
    1331 in Kilikia, to the Mesrop Mashtots Institute of Ancient
    Manuscripts.

    Hrachya Tamrazyan, director of the Matenadaran, mentioned that the
    manuscript, which involves a number of valuable memoirs, was acquired
    with the assistance of Tigran Jierjyan, a friend of the `Phoenix'
    Foundation.

    Hrachya Tamrazyan said that the Foundation has provided recently some
    materials, necessary for restoration of manuscripts, as well as
    printing devices and cameras. A wide spectrum of programs of
    publishing are carried out in association with the foundation.

    `The Matenadaran is a fruitful sole for benevolence and human
    resources development. I am sure that the seeds, farmed here, will
    bear a great number of fruit in the future.

    A new school, intended for restoration, conservation and copying of
    written monuments, will open soon in association with the foundation.
    The School of Restoration and Miniature will prepare specialists for
    the Matenadaran.

    `However we should multiply our efforts in these sectors, as there are
    a number of manuscripts, which are waiting for restoration. On the
    other hand the funds of manuscripts, old books and the archive are
    being stocked gradually,' director of the Matenadaran said.

    Gabriel Chempertchyan, president of honor of the `Phoenix' Human
    Resources Development All-Armenian Foundation, Levon Sargsyan,
    president of the board of trustees of the foundation, as well as
    Mihran Minasyan, Armenologist, collector of manuscripts and documents,
    were awarded the `St. Mesrop Mashtots' Medal for their exclusive
    devotion to the Matenadaran.
