History
The Historical Archives "Ras" in Novi Pazar are one of the youngest archival institutions in Serbia.[4] They were established on June 26, 1980, by the decision of the Self-Management Interest Community for Culture of the Novi Pazar Municipality, when the Archival Department of the Historical Archives of Kraljevo became an independent archival institution.[4] The archival holdings of the Historical Archives "Ras" are divided into three key periods.[4] Ottoman Period includes a collection of documents in oriental languages, among which the Sidžili of the Novi Pazar Kadija (court records) are of the greatest historiographical significance.[4] The period form 1912 to 1944 includes records such as the books of minutes of the Novi Pazar Municipality (1913–1929) and the fund of the Novi Pazar Gymnasium, which was established in November 1913.[4] Much of the material from this period was destroyed during the Allied bombing of Novi Pazar in 1944.[4] Post-World War II Period features extensive records from local government bodies, courts, educational, cultural, health institutions, and economic entities in the Novi Pazar, Sjenica, and Tutin areas.[4]
