The idea behind Scholars without Borders (SwB) is to highlight the best of Indian academic writing, and make it possible to obtain this material online. By “obtain” we mean both to get digital content where such content is available, as well as to be able to order online or via the phone when only the printed form is available. Our aim, quite simply, is to close the loop between the book and the reader, to make books available in places with poor access to bookstores but with mobile and internet connectivity. We list selected texts, monographs, reports, conference proceedings, journals and periodicals, and present a wide variety of publishers and cover a range of disciplines.

Search tips
Combine the name of any particular state, language or region with that of any tribal (Adivasi) community.
Add keywords of special interest (music, poetry, dance just as health, sacred grove and biodiversity); learn about the rights of Scheduled Tribes such as the “Forest Rights Act” (FRA); and the United Nations “Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples”, “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”, “women’s rights”, or “children’s right to education”.
Specify any other issue or news item you want to learn more about (biodiversity, bonded labour and human trafficking, climate change, ecology, economic development, ethnobotany, ethnomedicine, global warming, hunter-gatherers in a particular region or state, prevention of rural poverty, water access).
For official figures include “scheduled tribe ST” along with a union state or region: e.g. “Chhattisgarh ST community”, “Himalayan tribe”, “Scheduled tribe Tamil Nadu census”, “ST Kerala census”, “Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group Jharkhand”, “PVTG Rajasthan”, “Adivasi ST Kerala”, “Adibasi ST West Bengal” etc.
