Guide to the Indexing of South Asian Studies Periodicals

November 1, 2010

The periodical literature from and about South Asia is immense, yet unfortunately only a small proportion of it has been indexed, either in print or electronic format. Even in cases where a title has been indexed, more often than not, the indexing sources and services have not remained current, nor have they grappled with the unique questions presented by the languages and scripts of South Asia. In an attempt to rectify this problem the Guide to the Indexing of South Asian Studies Periodicals identifies and lists South Asian periodical titles and identifies if a particular title has been indexed and if so, to what extent.
