Tibetan Buddhist Resource Center moves US office to Cambridge, MA

Posted: 29 Jun 2012 02:00 PM PDT

The Tibetan Buddhist Resource Center (TBRC) has moved from the Rubin Museum of Art to a new office space in Cambridge, Massachusetts, right in Harvard Square. The TBRC was originally founded by the late Tibetan scholar E. Gene Smith in Cambridge back in 1999.

According to a recent blog post on the move, TBRC is excited to announce that they have started a new internship program in collaboration with the Harvard Divinity School and the Department of South Asian Studies at Harvard. They've also set up a kiosk and seminar room on site for visitors and students to assist them in their research.

In the post at TBRC's blog, the staff writes, "Our new location is spacious and bright, and we are thankful to the support we have received from patrons, board members, supporters, and friends. We are also appreciative that all of TBRC's core staff members have made the transition."

The Tibetan Buddhist Resource Center exists to preserve, organize and distribute works of Tibetan literature. To find out more about TBRC, visit their website.
