Ask a Reference Question

We answer questions about the following subject areas: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, East Timor, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Maldives, Myanmar, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, and the South Asian diaspora. Please fill out the following form as completely as possible; the more information you give us, the better our answer will be. Items with an asterisk (*) are required fields.

As soon as we are able, we will contact you with  a) an answer, b) with a request for more information, or c) advice on where you might be able to locate an answer. If you need a faster response, or have an in-depth reference question that is best answered in person, please call or visit the South/Southeast Asia Library.

We can help you with  South Asian and Southeast Asian topics at the UC Berkeley Library. For general library questions, see the UCB Library web site, or go to the general reference Ask A Reference Question page.

PLEASE NOTE: We do not provide comprehensive or lengthy bibliographies. We do not retrieve or hold library materials for requestors. UCB faculty, staff, and graduate students are eligible to use BAKER Document Delivery Service, a for-fee document delivery service. We will keep all personal information confidential.
