Description: Description of ACIP's mission to preserve and make Eastern scriptural texts available in computerized form. A selection of texts from the Kangyur, Tengyur, and Sungbum, in Romanized Tibetan and Tibetan script are available to read or download. Includes graphics of woodblock prints, reference materials, Tibetan Font software, catalogs, and a version of the Blue Annals in English.
For over 20 years, The Asian Classics Input Project has been locating, cataloging, digitally preserving, and disseminating the precious collections of ancient Tibetan and Sanskrit literature. These invaluable texts hold the philosophical, cultural, and religious heritage of endangered Asian cultures dating back more than 2,500 years. It is a race against time, as countless books have been lost over the generations and many of the books that do remain are dangerously fragile, held in politically precarious hands, or otherwise inaccessible.
