The Hindi collection :
About 75% of the books in this section are in Hindi. They form a collection of particular interest to researchers in Hindi literature. Most items in the collection were published pre-1960, and there are many dating from the early twentieth century and before. The stock includes historic encyclopedias and dictionaries, religious texts in Hindi translation, works on ayurveda and on Indian philosophy. The collection is on open access and is indexed both in the card catalogue and OPAC.

Other Indian languages :
A substantial collection of books in a number of other Indian languages including Bengali, Urdu, Marathi, and Pharsi have also been preserved from the legacy of Hem Raj Pandey, but full cataloguing of these sections remains to be carried out.
