The Indian book publishing industry has today a vitality of its own. The prolific growth of publishers in its towns and cities has resulted in thousands of books/periodicals being produced in not only English but also other national/regional languages every year. Many of these publications are of great merit and valuable contribution keeping the cultural, ethnic and linguistic pluralities of the Indian society in mind. However, not all of them are easily accessible. Indeed, finding a book/journal published by, say, a publisher in a remote town could prove a difficult task for customers. And herein is the significance of an organisation like DK. We, at DK, with our amazing resourcefulness and expertise in the field, can locate any title published in the country.

Beginning with English language books, we expanded our services to include Sanskrit and Tibetan language books and then those in all the major Indian languages. We started cataloguing Sanskrit language books towards the end of the 1970s and added books in the national language Hindi later. Today, we receive nearly 15,000 books of Indian origin in all these Indian languages. The Indian languages in which we offer services are as follows:

Assamese
Bengali (Published from both India and Bangladesh)
Gujarati
Hindi (different dialects)
Kannada
Malayalam
Marathi
Oriya
Punjabi
Sanskrit
Tamil
Telugu
Urdu (Published from both India and Pakistan)

All these language books are catalogued at DK with utmost care and attention following the same level of cataloguing parameters as we do for books in English, Sanskrit and Hindi. The cataloging is done in Romanised format using diacritical marks as per ALA/LC Romanisation Tables. Due care is given to catalogue classical Sanskrit works using uniform titles wherever necessary. The software at DK supports MARC21 records with the original scripts of all these languages for major fields.

Our foremost concern is to make available to our customers any publication in any Indian/major South Asian language from this subcontinent. And in this our unique resourcefulness comes to full view. It should not be therefore surprising that within a short time we have gradually expanded our services and made an enviable place for ourselves among the service organisations at the global level.

We are proud to say that we now receive nearly 28,000 books of South Asian origin every year. A lot of Tibetan language books have been appearing from India. DK started cataloguing that literature in the early 1980s and later began adding those published from Bhutan as well. All these books cater to a range of customers associated with different academic disciplines and professions, and belonging to various age groups including children.

Increasingly non-conventional methods of publishing are gaining popularity in the South Asian region and our effort is to offer what is available in terms of these products as well. Therefore, we try to make available CD-ROMs, microfilms/microfiche and audios of Indic languages’ learning kits

Our highly comprehensive coverage has made our website the largest book database from South Asia offering books for sale.
