            Digital Himalaya Project is digitising archival collections of
            ethnographic information from the Himalayan region. Five major anthropological
            collections were selected for digitisation in the first phase of
            the project to reflect a range of different media and a wide coverage
            of geographical areas and ethnic populations from across the Himalayas.
            Alongside these visual and audio collections, we have more recently digitised an
            extensive set of back issues of Himalayan journals and maps and have created
            layered GIS maps of Nepal's 75 districts. Our newest collection is an interactive online version of the 2001 Census of Nepal. Click
