PUBLICATIONS

TThe ANHS publishes HIMALAYA, an inter-disciplinary journal devoted to publishing original academic research on the region as well as disseminating information (conference abstracts, reports from the field, book reviews) of interest to those working on and in the Himalaya. Himalaya began as a mimeographed newsletter (the Nepal Studies Newsletter) for the newly formed Nepal Studies Association and developed into a journal, the Himalayan Research Bulletin , more or less in its current format, by the early 1980s. In 2003 the journal underwent an extensive redesign and was given a new name, HIMALAYA. The journal is currently hosted by Macalester College in St. Paul. Submissions to the journal can be made electronically via this link .

In addition to the journal, ANHS has published two iterations of an annual teaching calendar dealing with Himalayan themes and proposes to publish more in the future.
