| Title | Banglapedia |
| Description | "Banglapedia" is an online encyclopaedia on Bangladesh studies. It is a Web Site of interest to anyone studying, researching or teaching subjects pertaining to the contemporary state of Bangladesh and its historical incarnations (which have encompassed ancient East India, medieval Bangalah, and British Bengal). This major project, in Bangla and English, is headed by Professor Sirajul Islam of Dhaka University, and is the product of over a hundred contributors. It is easy to navigate, laid out in alphabetical order and is prefaced by an extremely detailed essay by the Chief Editor. However, there is also a section explaining how to use the Banglapedia, which clarifies issues such as date systems, contributors, cross references, and headings. The Banglapedia is also available in CD-ROM format. Entries are short and concise, and although the Banglapedia is not fully comprehensive, it is an excellent basic resource. |
