In the preparation of this bibliography, 79 catalogues of Sanskrit manuscripts were consulted. Information given with respect to Mss. is therefore limited to what is contained in the aforesaid catalogues. To that extent the present survey of Mss. attempted in this work needs must be incomplete in view of a considerable amount of manuscript literature, whether already deposited in the libraries or in private collections, remaining yet to be catalogued and described. It is possible that the catalogues consulted may not have exhausted all those that have appeared to date; but every effort has been made to make the bibliography as representative as possible. The bibliography records more or less 660 titles by about 480 authors and about 320 anonymous works.
