Abstract

Ex-libris has been introduced to Turkey either by Turks going abroad or via books purchased from the West. Ex-librises are found in some books on Turkey bought from auctions conducted in the West. It can be argued that those who have first got ex-librises made in the real sense in Turkey were the expatriate bibliophiles of that period. The number of bibliophiles as well as others, who get ex-librises done as a measure against theft by borrowers of books from their libraries, is increasing every other day. First established in Ankara in 1997, the Ex-libris Society in our country has continued its activities in Istanbul under the name of the Istanbul Ex-libris Society since 2008. Istanbul Ex-libris Museum was moved to new locality Işik University in Maslak in 2014. The collection of more than 17.000 ex-librises and library has created great opportunuties for researchers.
