metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article presents a summary of the unpublished catalogue of Oirat manuscripts and xylographs
  preserved at the Cabinet for Collecting, Cataloguing, and Publishing Old Books
  of Ethnic Minorities, the National Affairs Committee of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous
  Region (Ürümqi), compiled by the keeper of the collection Do. Galdan. The fund contains
  around 400 books collected among the Mongolian population of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous
  Region since 1984. The Catalogue compiled by Do. Galdan is a list of 397 entries
  structured according to the order of shelfmarks: the items are neither classified by topic nor
  indexed, which does not allow the search for a particular text inside the collection. Therefore,
  classifying and grouping the items is the main task of this article. Its main focus is a thematic
  index to the upcoming catalogue. The index is preceded by commentary that introduces the
  classification of texts and notes the highlights of the collection. The texts were classified based
  on their titles and the descriptions of their content provided by Do. Galdan in his draft catalogue.
  The overall number of surviving Oirat manuscripts is limited, and the value of the materials
  preserved in Ürümqi is beyond dispute. What makes this collection exceptional is its
  local and popular character which reflects the tradition of text-related practices spread among
  the Oirat population of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in the 20th century.
