Supposedly, the Bible was created for a separate Christian Armenian community speaking Turkish. Other books are also kept in the library, like an around 500 years old liturgical book, and exotic Bibles.
“Further research is necessary to find out why this book has been published,” said Yordanka Moskova, a scientific employee of the library.
The library’s collection has existed since the 70s of the past century. Having almost 600 books, the second state university library is a unique temple of volumes, some of which are 5 centuries old. The library also features other interesting books, including several Bibles in Turkish with unique artwork. The library is open not only to the students of the Shumen University but also anyone who is interested in literature and science.

I have a similar Bible in Turkish, printed in Armenian letters, that belonged to my Armenian grandmother. The one I have was published by the American Bible Society in Vienna in 1930, six years after my grandmother came to America.
I have similar unique Turkish Bible printed in Armenian Letters published in Istanbul 1892.
