Khazar University Dictionary and Encyclopedia Center

The Khazar University Dictionary and Encyclopedia Center,[1] located on the campus of Khazar University in Baku, Azerbaijan, has been in operation since April 1996.[2] The center is directed by Professor Tofik Abaskuliyev.[3] The center’s main functions are to perform linguistic and lexicological research and to prepare, evaluate and publish bilingual, multilingual and encyclopedic dictionaries.

Activities

The center is currently devoting most of its time to the production of a six-volume “Khazar English-Azerbaijani Comprehensive Dictionary” (edited by Prof. Hamlet Isakhanli and Prof. Tofik Abaskuliyev) which aims to be a significant aid to language learners, translators and scholars. The first three volumes of the dictionary were published by Khazar University Press in 2004 and 2008, and the remaining volumes are in the process of compilation by the Dictionary and Encyclopedia Center.
