Kailash - Journal of Himalayan Studies
Project staff have digitised back issues of Kailash - Journal of Himalayan Studies. This excellent publication, printed on traditional rice paper in Kathmandu, Nepal, by Ratna Pustak Bhandar, is difficult to acquire and only a handful of university libraries have assembled a complete set. With the support of the publishers and editors of the journal, we have digitised up to Volume 19. All the digitised issues are now freely available as downloadable PDFs in segments organised by individual article. On account of the compression format we have used for the PDF files, we advise that you install the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat which can be downloaded by clicking here. Please send us a short email to say whether this service is of interest and utility to you.
