December 11, 2007: Areshian Library Inaugurated at the Oriental Institute, University of Chicago.  From the press release:

"This rare collection, consisting of books written primarily in Russian and Armenian, covers the archaeology and languages of central Asia (Caucasus). As the print runs were so limited for such work, many of the volumes are extremely rare in the United States, existing in only 1 or 2 copies in the entire country, and the collection as a whole serves as one of the most significant collections of archaeological resources in Armenian and Russian in the Western Hemisphere. To take but a single example, B. V. Farmakovskij's important work Arkhaicheskij period v Rossii (Archaic Period in Russia), from 1914 (in Russian) currently has no entries in WorldCat, making this an exceedingly rare volume in the US."
