Summary/Abstract: It should be noted that this is not about taking registry once in the form of a whole, but this is a long-term and individual collecting the original documents and various other materials from private collections. After the phase of gathering comes the phase of sorting and selecting, and then determine and identify those individual documents whose treatment is a priority with regard to time which belongs to either of the matter being processed and understanding of said document or documents gathered from a variety of bulk collections and registry. In this way, collected numerous individual documents, that have been out of the registry system and they become significant units and small collections of important research and understanding of certain topics. By processing each document as one manuscript, primarily those in the Ottoman language, we create automatically a unique database through a variety of local and international programs to gather and document archival material. Collecting materials from processed local offices scattered and dispersed collections themselves by entering into a digital processing system becomes thematically and chronologically arranged.

Allowing access to archival material processed coming from unorganized collections and which is presented in the form of extensive abstract as a possible approach to systematically arranged material through a system of electronic databases, will show all the importance and usefulness of the individual, and then collected and processed from a variety of documents scattered offices and bulk collections. Attribution, processing and publication of the above-described type of material that comes from scattered offices and scattered collections, in addition to sijil as organized collection of documents of the Ottoman judicial office, it will significantly improve giving access in our region to all the understanding of various topics in Bosnian history of the Ottoman period.
