Self-description "As part of the Digital Himalaya Project,
[www.digitalhimalaya.com] we are beginning to digitise out-of-print volumes 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

Himalaya have digitised Volume 1, Number 1, 1973 of Kailash. This edition is
now available as a free PDF download in its entirety or in smaller segments
organised according to the individual articles."
