Columbia regularly receives the following print-journals. The latest issues for each can be found in the Tibetan Periodicals Alcove in the main reading room of the C.V. Starr East Asian Library. Bound issues for the preceding two years are shelved (by call number) in the Starr Stacks (levels 100-250). All other back issues are stored offsite, but can be requested via CLIO with 24-48 hour notice. Search the journal title in CLIO for exact holdings. For readers at other schools, scanned articles can be requested through Borrow Direct and ILL. If you have any questions, please contact the Tibetan Librarian at lh2112@columbia.edu.
