This is the place where I do my best to keep working links (in the form of URLs) to Word and PDF versions of large files made available through (but not actually contained within) Tibeto-logic blogspot and Tibetological website.* It is constantly under revision, as links expire and new files (or newly revised versions of files) are put up. What you see below is informal and messy, but just go to the blue or purple URLs, tap on them, and you should be on your way.
Do you need anything that is here? Most of these things (primarily indices and bibliographies) are of use to Tibetologists only, although I believe they should also be of use to some other people, especially Buddhologists and Indologists. If you are shocked at the very idea of reading Tibetan or Sanskrit... and if English (or even German, Italian or French) is your language of preference, go directly to TibSchol bibliography. You can basically just ignore the rest of the things that are here. Well, perhaps if you have an interest in Bon religion, you will also want the Bon Bibliography. TibVocab, as the name suggests, a vocabulary of Tibetan words, is not found here at all, although I think of putting it up. The only version of it made public is the one forming a part of the THlib's "Tibetan-to-English Translation Tool." It was put there without any hint that it is supposed to be keyed to a bibliography, and since it is a citation dictionary, I would think that the bibliographical information is essential, really. That means it is largely useless for serious Tibetological researchers. That's why I have put up the bibliographic key, "TibVocab Biblio," here. *The first publicly released version of Tibskrit was put up in March 2006, at this address (thanks to help from old friend Kurt Keutzer): http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/~keutzer/martin/ I believe it is still there, but I no longer recommend it. Although I suppose it is possible, I doubt that anyone who has not studied some amount of Tibetan and/or Sanskrit will be able to make very much use of Tibskrit. For the most recent upload, scroll down below (ignoring the blackout). TibProp is a dictionary/index of Tibetan personal and place names (as well as some book titles, names of teachings, schools and the like). So far only a few hundred pages worth has been uploaded, but when it is done it will be the equivalent of a 1,500 page book. Still other things will be found, with their links, at the end of this file. I would like to remind you that the blacked-out text exists here for historical purposes only. There is nothing of contemporary relevance. Actually, I must confess that my attempt to make this file into an attachment failed. So I went to an upload site instead. It shouldn't take long for the download. Do it soon, since there is no guarantee it will still be there next month. Your link to the Tibskrit file is (or used to be) this: http://www.savefile.com/files/1849157 But as of October 10, 2009, it appears that "savefile" is a complete dead end. Therefore I put up a NEWER version of Tibskrit on "megaupload" site (the Word & PDF files are identical in their content, really!). This NEWER version is a bit short of being 2,500 pages in length, a gain of about 500 pages over the earlier version:
Here is the Word document version of Tibskrit 2009 (16 megabytes): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JES0HYHW
Following is the PDF version of Tibskrit 2009 (24 megabytes): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OJMB3WZH These two just-given links were checked and still working on April 4, 2010. They are now dead. New links as of February 1, 2011. Note: Megaupload makes you wait 45 seconds before the "Regular Download" button will appear. Have a little patience.

There are other interesting databases here that could be worth checking out even if you're not interested in Tibskrit in these particular forms. I know I'm not. In April of 2014, Tibskrit 2014 was released. For the direct download of Tibskrit 2014, go here (I haven't put up a PDF version of it): or this:
Now there is "Tibskrit 2016" — § § § And you might also want to download the Tibschol bibliography:
Word document: http://www.savefile.com/files/1938952 PDF version: http://www.savefile.com/files/1938958 Unfortunately Tibschol is not available at the moment (September 2010). Come back in a few weeks and the problem ought to be fixed. OK! Here are new links (Sept. 2010) for Tibschol (choose the Word document or the PDF according to your wish): Word document of Tibschol: PDF of Tibschol: OK! Here are new links (January 2012) for Tibschol version 2010 (choose the Word document or the PDF according to your wish):
Free forever! I will do everything in my power to prevent and combat the unlawful sale of Tibskrit and Tibschol. Download sites do not have the right to take even a single penny for it. § § § The link to TibHist (Tibetan Histories: Addenda et Corrigenda) is: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37359227/%2BTibHist%20Supplement.doc § § § Feb. 23, 2012, update On October 16, 2011, I put two files up on (now defunct) Megaupload. HTML is the only form in which they are available at the moment (January 25, 2012). One is the first 1/16th of a Tibetan Proper Names Index. The other is a bibliographical key to the same. The content of "TibProp" (or PropNames) was introduced at this blog page: Note: At the moment, TibProp 2012 is the latest version available, it only supplies coverage up to the middle of the third level of the Tibetan alphabet, containing about 1/7th of the whole work (ending with the entry for Dge-legs-bshes-gnyen). The remainder is currently being revised and may take some time to complete.

Please pass the working links along to anyone you think may be interested. Now fascicles of Tibprop are being put up on fascicle at a time at Tiblical website. As of April 26, 2014, seven numbered fascicles (covering the alphabet up to the letter DA) plus the bibliographic key may be found here: As of September 2018, the fascicles at Tiblical have been taken down and moved to a new website. About half of the alphabet has been completed, and is available in a single file (you can cut-&-paste it into your own Word file if you like, and keep it on your own computer). A second page contains the bibliographical references. What was once called PropNames, is now called "Tibetan Proper Name Index," or "TPNI." + + + January 19, 2012 Zhang Works (downloads from Dropbox):
