Worked on the fihrist-mss repository to enhance Arabic manuscript cataloging, focusing on data integrity, localization, and metadata enrichment. Over three months, delivered fifteen new features and resolved four bugs by creating and updating XML-based records, implementing Surah ID mapping, and expanding multilingual support. Applied TEI-XML encoding and advanced XML schema design to improve searchability, linking, and data consistency across the digital library. Maintained rigorous change traceability and documentation, ensuring reproducibility and auditability. Improvements included linking manuscript facsimiles to Manchester Digital Collections, refining localization resources, and correcting metadata, which collectively increased catalog completeness and accessibility for scholarly research and discovery.
