The attached Excel spreadsheet NewSAsiaBooksDec2012-Jan2013 contains a selected list of new South Asia related acquisitions at Princeton University Library for December 2012 through January 2013. This list (as well as future listings to be posted on this blog) includes titles received in Acquisitions that have not necessarily been cataloged at the time of posting–so catalog numbers are not included in this list.

The spreadsheet NewAcquisitionsLCIslamabadJan2013 includes a list of recent acquisitions from the Library of Congress-Islamabad. Both English and Urdu titles are included. For Urdu books, I have included (in the final column) a hyperlink to the WorldCat record.

The spreadsheet NewAcquisitionsLCDelhiJan2013 lists recent acquisitions from the Library of Congress–New Delhi office for the month of January 2013. This list consists of English language books in a range of subjects including some very nice art books, as well as works on economics/finance, anthropology, biology, and history.

The first step in locating any of these books is to check the Princeton University catalog. If the item has not yet been assigned a call number, submit an In Process request for the book.

At Princeton’s Graphic Arts collection, we recently acquired an art/poetry book Varsha by Ranjani Shettar. More details are on the Graphic Arts blog.
