Thanks for this Tim.  Links to the resources you mention are already there in the listing at http://indology.info/external-resources, afaik.  The way information is presented is far from clear: I'm trying to get an upgrade to the Wordpress plugin, in the hope of improving presentation.

About the Asiatic Society of Mumbai, some of their MSS could be found at archive.org by searching in Devanagari, but I think they have been taken down.

Best,
Dominik

Greetings,

   The  Lalcand Research Library (originally in Lāhore) of D.A.V. College, Chandigarh has a large collection, some of which was previously available on archive.org.  The manuscripts that I downloaded a few years back came with a full roman transcription as well as translations. Current web site:  https://www.davchd.ac.in/lcrl

    A MS from the Asiatic Society of Mumbai was also available on archive.org some years back, but it too has disappeared from there and (likely) been integrated into their new site at:

https://www.asiaticsociety.org.in/index.php/holdings/manuscripts

This site requires registration and the payment of a fee as an annual subscription.

   One note about the Penn collection: it is integrated into the worldcat site, so a search for a book will also bring up notices of the Penn collection, plus links that bring you directly to the digitized images.

Best wishes,

Tim Cahill

Deepest thanks to everyone who has sent me further links for the list of "Online Libraries of Scanned Manuscripts" at INDOLOGY.info.  I'm using a cheap-and-cheerful plugin for Wordpress that doesn't allow manual rearrangement of the list items.  So it's a bit of a grab-bag.

Best,
Dominik

In addition to the already-mentioned repositories, Penn Libraries has digitized almost 3000 South Asian manuscripts: https://openn.library.upenn.edu/html/indic_contents.html

There's also a nice collection of Sanskrit mss. from Cambridge U. :

The Gallica database of the Bibliotheque nationale de France also includes scans of many Skt. and other Indic mss., but I haven't found an easy way to globally search Skt. alone. Here's the general site:

And, if anyone cares to look up the details and post them, the Endangered Archives programme of the British Library (https://eap.bl.uk/) has scanned quite a lot of Pali and probably some Sanskrit as well (not to mention Tibetan, Mongolian, etc.).

The Buddhist Digital Archives (https://library.bdrc.io/), though specializing in Tibetan, has recently branched out to include Pali, Sanskrit, and SE Asian languages, though I am not yet clear about what part of these additions are redirects to other databases.

Admittedly NOT on archive.org, however, the Jain elibrary


(free registration required for full access)

has scanned and uploaded around 800 manuscripts (seemingly exclusively Jain texts) (findable in the category on the left of the site) as well as the 16,899 ‘books’ on the site and 6,000+ ‘articles’

Dear list members,
Has anyone compiled a list of manuscript collections on archive.org. I'm of course aware of egangotri, but I would appreciate it if members could give me references to other collections of original manuscripts.
Thanks,
Harry Spier
