File:Title page of gdams ngag mdzod-W20877.jpg
Directions for cataloging the gdams ngag mdzod:
Front Page Title(s): This is the title given on the actual "Title page" for the text, if there is no real separate title page, write "No title page." If there is a title page, you will describe it line by line. Write out the Wylie for the Tibetan and Sanskrit titles using extended Wylie transliteration (A useful tool for this). For Lantsa, simply write, "Lantsa title". Refer to the image above for the example given here:
Example: the first full text listed in the TBRC Outline of the gdams ngag mdzod is listed online as sgyu 'phrul drwa ba'i lam rnam par bshad pa chung ngu. The actual title page of the Paro edition has three lines of text, one in Lantsa, one in Sanskrit transliterated into Tibetan script and one standard Tibetan title in dbu chen script. For this entry we would write:
Front Page Title(s):
Line 1: Lantsa title
Line 2: @#/_/mA_yA_dzAla_s+yapa_tho_bi_b+hA_Sha_stoka_biha_tisma/_//
Line 3: @#/_sgyu 'phrul drwa ba'i lam rnam par bshad pa chung ngu bzhugs so//_//
Left side print: ka lam gcig chung
Right side print: blank
First Page Title(s): This is for the title that may appear on the first full page of text (i.e., the actual beginning of the text). If there is not other title than what is given on the first title page, simply write: "No title".
