ARIT ANKARA CENTER
The ARIT - Ankara Center is located in Çankaya, Ankara. The facility occupies two commodious adjacent apartments in a building that overlooks Seğmenler Park and the well-kept residences of the Foreign and Prime Ministers of Turkey. It is close to shopping and dining establishments, and only a fifteen-minute walk from the British Institute of Archaeology at Ankara (BIAA). The center provides office, library, study, and conference areas. Hostel, kitchen and living areas are available for guests in a second apartment in the same building. E-mail and web access are available in the library and hostel.
The ARIT-Ankara center's Toni M. Cross Library holds approximately 13,000 monographs and journals focused on archaeological studies, but also includes resources for scholars working on modern Turkish studies. The holdings in archaeology have recently grown to include the library of Machteld J. Mellink. Renovation of the library facilities and incorporation of the Mellink collection have been supported by an National Endowment for the Humanities Endowment Challenge Grant. Please consider a special gift to support this plan.
A catalogue of the holdings of the Ankara center library is now accessible on-line at the Digital Library for International Research (DLIR).
