Sayahna Digital Collection

This site is a respository of all the digital content in different formats published by the Sayahna Foundation. Apart from the formats like pdf and html for immediate public consumption of the content, we deliver xml versions of the content for archiving and future usage. A broader classification of the content has been done and links to their respective pages are also provided hereunder.

The contents have been released under the terms of Creative Commons License. The public domain works are under the terms of cc by share alike (cc-by-sa). A few items, however, have been released under a slightly restrictive license of cc by non-commercial share alike (cc-by-nc-sa) at the insistence of the respective authors or copyright holders of those content since they do not want their content to be exploited commercially. Kindly check the license before using the content for commercial purposes.

We have chosen to use the current version (p5) of Text Encoding and Interchange (tei) document type definition (dtd) for xml format, owing to its comprehensive ability to encode almost all types of content spanning different disciplines like arts, literature, humanities, linguistics, grammar, performing arts, lexicogrphy, science and technology including mathematics, etc.

The category pages provide links to each of these formats of the works listed. Apart from this, each html page provides a link to its xml and pdf versions in the colophon section provided at the bottom.

We welcome your responses and suggestions for improvement in the form of emails to editors@sayahna.org.
