In this part, there will be a concrete example from Turkey. The first step for exploring the Turkish periodicals on history of education and pedagogy is start with the catalogue prepared by Hasan Duman: Hasan Duman, Baslangicindan Harf Devrimine Kadar Osmanli-Türk Süreli Yayinlar ve Gazeteler Bibliyografyasi ve Toplu Katalogu, 1828-1928, Ankara: Enformasyon ve Dokümantasyon Hizmetleri Vakfi, 2000. This catalogue is about the Turkish periodicals published in old Turkish (with Arabic letters), therefore it covers the periodicals published between 1828 and 1928, when Turkey adopted Latin Alphabet. This catalogue not only shows the volumes and issues of the periodicals but also indicates the libraries where one can find a particular newspaper, journal and magazine. Through the website of the National Library (Milli Kütüphane, http://sureli.mk.gov.tr/index.php) one can search more than 200 Turkish periodicals. A considerable part of these periodicals are related to history of education and pedagogy. The following periodicals are some of the periodicals on history of education that are digitally available at this website: Anadolu Terbiye Mecmuasi, Darulfunun dersleri, Hadika-i Maarif, Ilk terbiye ve tedrisat, Kevkebul Ulum, Maarif, Maarif Risalesi, Mecmua-i Ulum, Mektep Müzesi, Mektepli, Talebe Defteri, Tedrisat mecmuasi, Tedrisat-i Ibtisaiye Mecmuasi, Maarif Vekaleti Mecmuasi, Milli Talim ve Terbiye Cemiyeti Mecmuasi, Sule-i Maarif, Terbiye, Terbiye Mecmuasi, Mektep Duygulari, Muallim, Muallimler Mecmuasi, Gülsen-i Edeb, Bilgi Mecmuasi, Ulum Gazetesi. To take an example, Muallim Sesi (Teacher’s Voice) is one of the earliest journals/magazines on Turkish education published after the Latin alphabet reform in 1928. Unfortunately, the earliest issues of the journal are not available. The first issue of the journal is believed to be printed in 1929; however, the earliest available issue starts from September 1934. From late 1935, the name of the journal turned to Ögretmen Sesi. During the WW II, the journal stopped its publication for one year and then continued its publication until May 1949. At the beginning the journal was published bi-monthly, but later it began to be a monthly journal. Salim Siren Kenres was the editor of the journal. Emine Nuri, Hikmet Galip, Makbule Mehmet, I. Hakki Sunat, Baha Soysal, Kemal Demiray, Perran Nazim, Hasip A. Aytuna, Saffet Zarif, and Ibrahim N. Özgür are among the authors of the journal. Muallim Sesi/Ögretmen Sesi is available at Atatürk Library in Istanbul. The library provides the researchers digital version of the journal which makes the research more practical.
