This event will introduce aspects of Tibetan manuscript and book culture, following the recent publication in two volumes of Tibetan Manuscripts and Early Printed Books,
edited by Matthew Kapstein (Cornell University Press, March 2024). We warmly invite students and researchers in Tibetan studies, as well as anyone interested in books and manuscript cultures more broadly.
