The Ottoman Archives not only contain information about the Ottoman dynasty and the Ottoman state , but also about each nation that holds part of these resources . Though touted as being open to all researchers , scholars have complained about being prevented access to view documents due to the nature of their research topic . However , plenty of Armenian Genocide researchers including the British-Armenian Ara Sarafian , as well as Taner Akcam ( known for his research on and acceptance of the Armenian Genocide ) have used the Ottoman archives in Istanbul extensively when citing research for their books though they have made claims that obstacles were put during their access
