I am much impressed, inspired and grateful for the amazing progress of the BRC. This is the manifestation of the desire of Srila Prabhupada and it is wonderful to see it…We are seeing the beginning of what will be a vast and ever-growing endeavour.

I also received some invaluable help on a research project so I am doubly grateful…

Prof. Ashlin Aronin, Wesleyan Uni., CT:

The Bhaktivedanta Research Library was an invaluable asset for my research. I wish I had known about it sooner!

Prof. Ruby Sain, Yadavpur University:

It is impossible to collect such treasure within such a short span of time. … This collection is indeed marvellous for future generations of India and other countries. I must congratulate all those who are working so hard to make this library vibrant.

Prof. Lucian Wong, Oxford University:

The library collection is extremely impressive. Many, many gems. Library staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Overall, a wonderful research experience. I definitely plan to return.
