Fascinating. I just went through my old emails and it appears I began asking in late 2013 for manuscripts and eventually received them in October 2014 from someone working on the project.
I have submitted a request for the ones I am after through Berlin and they seem to have accepted the request. I am just waiting to pay and receive them. This is great news! I'm only 5 hours flight to Nepal but if I can get them digitally that will save me a lot of time and environmental costs.

CAUTION! EXTERNAL EMAIL (not being sent from @hkbu email system): Do not click links, open attachments, or respond to it unless you trust the email source/verify the identity of the sender by other means. [I apologise for the typo: not "between 1970 and 2021," but "between 1970 and 2001."] As far as the current state of digitisation is concerned, I can also report that this week the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (Berlin State Library) will bring a further 2,000 films to its scanning service provider. To give you an idea of the scope of the filmed material: Between 1970 and 2001, the NGMPP filmed approximately 180,000 manuscripts and 60,000 historical documents (9,136 microfilms, over 700 slide films and approximately 2,000 framed colour slides).
