CENTRAL REFERENCE LIBRARY

This is an ambitious project to trace the periodical literature appearing in the Indian Language periodicals. The first issue of the Indiana appeared as quarterly in 1977 and since 1981, it is being published as annual cumulated volumes.  6 languages viz. Bengali, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil and Malayalam periodicals are covered. Indexing articles pertaining to Indian Literature, Science and technology, Social Science, Indian Systems of Medicine, Folk literature, Philosophy etc. could be of great help to research scholars.

          This index is divided into three parts – classified part, subject index and author index. The entries are grouped in the classified part according to Dewey decimal classification system. The entries under the subject are further arranged by the author and wherever author not available then by title. All the entries are serially numbered in the classified part. The name of the authors and titles are given in popular spelling in Roman but near to their transliterated forms without the use of any diacritical marks. The subject and author indices are linked to these serial numbers.
