Sub-arrangement of bibliographic entries: Editions Complete editions of the text, with or without commentary.
Partial editions, selections, anthologies, etc., arranged by date. Translations Complete translations, arranged by language and date.
Partial translations, arranged by language and date. 5 Studies Arranged by author and date.
6 Indexes Arranged by date and including references to indexes in individual editions. The sections on the Āvasyaka literature have a very limited compass because the material is so diverse and not yet well-documented.
In January 1997 I gave a presentation based on an early form of this compilation to the Jain Studies panel at the Tenth International Sanskrit conference (Bangalore): "Towards a comprehensive bibliography of Jain literature." After that presentation I made twenty-five copies of the listing and mailed them out to Jain scholars in Europe, India, Japan and the United States. Although the listing has remained largely the same since then, I have endeavoured to remove typing errors and have continued to add references to editions and studies.
