Thanks for your answer, Jason, Do you mean that non illustrated manuscripts can be obtained freely from any RORI without asking permission from Jodhpur ? And, if I want a copy of a manuscript, don't I need Jodhpur's authorization ? Moreover, what exactly is an illustrated manuscript ? The problem is that I am looking for manuscripts of the Sanskrit translations of Euclid's Elements, which generally contains diagrams. Are these manuscripts considered as illustrated ? Finally, do you know who I should contact in Jodhpur RORI's administration ?
