The series also includes the Riyadha manuscript collection which was digitized in 2011 as part of the Endangered Archive Programme (EAP466) of the British Library funded by the Arcadia Fund. These objects bear the shelfmark MPRINT-RIYADHA-EAP466. The selection of what to digitize in this group was made according to age (prioritizing early prints) and relevance (such as lithographs.) Several prints on this list belong to individual custodians in Lamu town, and these were named after their owners (i.e. Khadija Muhammad Salim and Fatma Ba Hsan).

The early print group features a range of texts printed in Arabic between 1854 and 1977 across various printing centres in the Muslim world. The various stamps, handwritten notes, and annotations, mainly from the cover page, reflect the journey these texts have taken over the years from production centers to users. TIFF files High-quality TIFF images are available for researchers upon request.
