Publications of the Aga Khan Trust for Culture

The Award publications are now available at the Archnet Digital Library, which is an on-line resource focusing on architecture, urban design, urban development, and related issues in the Muslim world. The site is a collaboration between the Aga Khan Trust for Culture and the Massachuetts Institute of Technology, but many other institutions have contributed to building the database.
