The arrival in 1909 of the library of manuscripts now known as the
Chandra Shum Shere collection increased by well over six thousand
the already substantial holdings of the Bodleian and Indian
Institute libraries, and made Oxford the repository of the largest
known collection of Sanskrit manuscripts outside the Indian
subcontinent. It is a huge and uniquely valuable collection of
paper and palm leaf manuscripts, purchased for Oxford University by
Sir Chandra Shum Shere, the then Prime Minister of Nepal. The
General Editor of the catalogue of the collection is Dr Jonathan
Katz, Consultant to the Oriental Department of the Bodleian
Library, formerly Librarian of the Indian Institute, and present
Master of the Queen's Scholars at Westminster School.
