Directory of South Asianists from around the world, produced by the Columbia University through The South Asia Gopher, and is compiled and maintained by Dr. David Magier. The database contains records of individuals who have identified themselves as being involved in South Asian studies. Each record, submitted by the person listed, contains the name, title, affiliation, contact information (generally mail address, phones, FAX, and full email address), and a short statement of the person’s activities, teaching and/or research interests, specialisation, etc. in the area of South Asian Studies. The entries are free-form text, and one may include any information in any format that seems useful and informative. Searchable for a particular individual, location, language, subject, country. To submit an entry for yourself (or for someone else), please send full contact information and description of your work (as in the sample) by email to magier@columbia.edu or by mail/fax to: David Magier, South Asia Librarian, 304 International Affairs, Columbia University, 420 West 118th Street, New York, N.Y. 10027 212-854-8046 / FAX: 212-854-2495. Your description of your work and research or teaching interests should contain as much information as possible to allow people to identify you and your work, and to ‘find’ you through typical keyword searches (languages, countries or regions, fields and sub-disciplines, ethnic or political groups, etc.). Please feel free to contact Dr. Magier if you have questions about the Directory or need advice on the best way to construct your entry. [information from David Magier]
