Los Angeles is home to the most diverse Buddhist communities and traditions in the world, UCLA is home to one of the largest Buddhist studies programs in the country, and UCLA Library is home to the significant collection on Buddhism studies outside of Asia. This symposium seeks to provide a venue for scholars, practitioners, librarians, archivists, students, and community patrons to gather and celebrate the close collaboration between UCLA and the community. We hope to use this event to share research outcomes, information, and resources related to research and teaching on Buddhism across these communities. During the program we will introduce and highlight major archival collections held at UCLA Libraries that have resulted from these successful collaborations. These collections, which have recently been processed and made available for research, document the Buddhist communities in the greater Los Angeles area.
