The main collection, in the Başbakanlık Osmanlı Arşivleri ("Office of the Prime Minister Ottoman Archives") in Istanbul, holds the central State archives (Devlet arşivleri). These archives are open to scholars, regardless of nationality or research subject.

The Ottoman Archives not only contain information about the Ottoman dynasty and Ottoman State, but also about each nation that holds part of these resources.
