New page

== Establishment ==

The genesis of the MARC was an aspiration by the then WF President Dr Hasnain Walji to initiate centres or libraries in the Memory of Mulla Asgharali M M Jaffer in all major Khoja Jamaats in the world. At the time, London, Dares salaam, Karachi, Bhavnagar and Toronto and Mombasa were all considered as potential venues. The first such project that came to fruition was the Mulla Asgher Memorial Hall in Mombasa in 2002. MARC is the second such memorial project to be established. This was made possible in 2009 when the work at Bathurst was re-initiated after a pause. The first phase was finished and an opening ceremony was held on Saturday, October 24th, 2009. The facility was finally complete in April 2011 and this was inaugurated with the Quran exhibition which was open for 16 months. Through the good offices of the World Federation of KSI Muslim Communities, the total cost of establishment has been donated by the Hiridjee Family Foundation. We gratefully acknowledge their renowned philanthropic services and thank themfor the continued support in maintaining the Centre. We also thank Al Hajj RazalAlybhai Hiridjee for his guidance and assistance in the establishment of this Center. We also gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Alhajj Razzaq Damani the then President of ISIJ Toronto and Al Hajj Arif Asaria, the then General Secretary, for their assistance in the planning and construction of the ultra modern facility.

== Vision ==

Acknowledging that access to knowledge is a cornerstone of Islam. MARC serves as the knowledge navigator for the community by being a primary resource for knowledge, reading, research, and popular media in print, non-print, and electronic formats. And hence its declared vision is “To be a premier state of the art Islamic resource centre in North America providing research and learning facilities to Muslims as well as non-Muslims”.

== Services ==

MARC continues to expand its a multi lingual Reference Library, manuscripts on Islamic literature, bibliographical information for research purposes, digital access to ahadith and tafseer literature, multimedia resources from around the world, Khoja community archives, permanent exhibitions on Islam and works of Muslim scientists, scholars and artists. It has been developing media facilities, under the name MARC MEDIA to offer a rich multimedia experience during exhibitions.

o Book published – The Endangered Species – A journey of faith

o Khoja Journey of Faith Documentary – to be completed Nov 2013

== PR and Media facilities – Media Resource Room ==

o Video Production – Broadcast on TV – Islam in Focus

o Digitizing Quran Exhibition to offer as a Mobile Exhibition to other museums/centers

We are proud that within its short operational history, MARC has already started to make a major impact.
