About Project

Since the early 19th century, as a result of the gradual mass resettlement of Armenians in the historical regions of Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijani people were repeatedly displaced from their homeland. At the end of the 20th century, a mono-ethnic Armenian state was established in the territory of present-day Armenia, where Azerbaijanis formerly constituted an absolute majority. The Azerbaijani people were subjected to mass killings, genocides, repressions and deportations in Western Azerbaijan in 1905-1906, 1918-1920, the 1930s, 1948-1953 and 1987-1991. 
To this end, the library has developed the project "Western Azerbaijan. Electronic Library," reflecting the history of Western Azerbaijan.
The project provides insights into information about cultural artifacts destroyed by Armenian vandals, details about toponyms subjected to genocide, archival documents, the Concept of Return to Western Azerbaijan, maps, information about personalities, a photo chronicle, photo documents, and filmography. The digital library contains e-books and e-articles related to Western Azerbaijan and bibliographic descriptions of books, articles, and abstracts are provided in the bibliography section.
