    (INFLIBNET Centre, 2006-11-09) Maltesh, M; Devi, Th Satyabati
    The present paper is a joint venture of two authors who worked differently on manuscripts of Manipur and rare Buddhist manuscripts of Arunachal Pradesh, and the problematic of restoration and digitization in modern context. The major objective of the proposed study would be to delineate the modus operandi for the restoration of the rare Buddhist manuscripts in Arunachal Pradesh and rare manuscripts of Manipur, involving such scientific methods as electronic scanning, digitization, etc. However, these scientific methods would be complementary to the time-tested, indigenous and traditional methods of physical preservation in order to make these manuscripts available in its original or the simulated formats for the next generation. The electronic rendition of the calligraphies and art forms would be hosted on the web or it can be preserved in repositories by using D-Space software, so as to facilitate the entire world to comprehend the essence and tenets of manuscripts.
