Another Tibetan Buddhist canonical collection is the Collected Tantras of the Ancients (rnying ma rgyud 'bum). THDL has nearly completed a database of the contents of four editions of this collection. The level of detail of the entries and sophistication of technology utilized in these online reference materials surpasses anything done before on any collection of Tibetan Buddhist material. Another exemplary quality of this resource is that each segment of each record is hyperlinked to scanned images of that very section of the hardcopies of the texts. For an extensive introduction to the literature and structure of the Collected Tantras of the Ancient, and to search their database, please see the THL's Literature Encyclopedia.
