The Center is privileged to host two special collections of materials relating to South Asian Languages and Linguistics. These collections feature the personal research libraries of distinguished world authorities in this field, namely, Professor William Bright of University of California, Los Angales, and Professors Braj Kachru and Yamuna Kachru of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.  These libraries together constitute one of the most extensive and selective holdings on South Asian Linguistics and  are an invaluable resource for research in this area.
