History
The Journal of the Henry Martyn Institute traces its beginnings to the year 1911, when it appeared as News and Notes. Subsequently, in the year 1941, it became known as The Bulletin of Christian Institutes of Islamic Studies and by 1960, the title was once again changed to Bulletin of the Henry Martyn Institute of Islamic Studies. Then in the year 1972, it was changed to Al-Basheer: A Bulletin of Christian Institutes of Islamic Studies, which retained the title until 1976. Again from the year 1978 onwards, it reverted its title to Bulletin of the Henry Martyn Institute of Islamic Studies. Finally, since 1998, it took the name as Journal of the Henry Martyn Institute, which stands good till date. During mid-nineties, the publishers provided a trail of the journal under various names. Similarly, an external researcher, Binod Peter Senapati provided a brief note on constant name changes of the journal.
