[INDOLOGY] Abbreviations in NGMCP catalogue entries.

[Westin Harris]

Dear Harry,

I cannot speak on behalf of the Library's rules as I am not affiliated in
any official way.

But speaking from personal experience, I am an American doctoral candidate
living alternatively between California and Kathmandu and I have had no
problems ordering digital copies through the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin. In
fact, several years ago before they created the online webshop, one
previously had to email a librarian directly to request a copy. Back then,
when I first reached out to establish a relationship with one of the
librarians, I even stated clearly in my introductory email that I am an
American grad student and she made zero objections.

*Sincerely,*

*Westin Harris*
