Information embodied in documents is a great national and international resources. Scientific and technological knowledge has been expanding at a terrific speed. With the result, especially the scientists have been facing problems to cope with the relevant literature. It is becoming more and more difficult for them to keep themselves up-to-date and well informed in the field of their specializations. In the changed context nobody could afford to neglect information already available in some form. Not only that the available information had also to be collected and passed on to the persons who could use them profitably with in the shortest possible time. Now the modern library, with a few exceptions is regarded as a service institution and its aim is to enable the users to make the most effective use of resources and services of the library. This type of library acquires material, processes it, and makes it available for use rather than preservation. In order to facilitate the use of a library, Librarians provide tools like library catalogues, shelflist and subject bibliographies, etc.

Literature on area of studies like Himalaya is vast, multilingual and expensive. It becomes a matter of concern to any serious research worker. There is a definite need at local, regional, national and international levels at least to reduce the gravity of the problems if not to solve this fully. Bibliography is a technique of systematically producing descriptive lists of written or published records. Due to literature explosion, it is very difficult for any library to procure all the materials on any subject, even if it is too narrow. The concept of resource sharing become most popular in the field of research. By resource sharing, more and more research materials are used and it will definitely help research and development activities. Bibliographical services are most powerful tool for resource sharing. No modern library can function without bibliographical tool. Bibliography contributes towards the use of books and other materials and promotes useful applications of knowledge. The basic aim of bibliography is to assist the users in locating the existence of or identifying a book or other material of their interests.

In this current subject bibliography, an attempt has been made to categorize the books available on Himalaya in the Library and Information Centre of G.B. Pant Institute of Himalayan Environment and Development, under major subject headings. Books in English, Hindi and Chinese languages have been included in this bibliography. Entries are arranged using combination of Author, Title and Publisher Indexes, under various major subject headings. The present bibliography is the result of the extracts from the database of GBPIHED library, which is being maintained by the software package "PALMS (Prasad Automated Library Management System) developed by the first author himself. In displaying data and entry format Indian Standards have been followed which reads - Author. Title : Subtitle. Place of Publication, Publisher, Year of Publication. Pages.
