From the beginning of 2025, the Zograf Electronic Research Library can be used in the Central Library, Media Reading Room. As previously, users can access digitized manuscripts from the University Library’s only offline collection in the new dedicated space, as well as manuscript inventories, phototype editions of artefacts and other useful publications in relation to Mount Athos and the monasteries.
The Zograf Electronic Research Library was established in 2014 through a cooperation agreement between Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and the Saint George the Zograf Monastery. The total number of digitized manuscripts is 746, and the originals are kept in 16 monasteries, museums and libraries.
