Over the last few months, we\u2019ve been working behind the scenes to make the platform even more useful for scholars and practitioners of yoga.<br></p>
<p>We\u2019re excited to announce two major updates to <em>YogaResearch.org</em> , just in time for a strong start to 2026:</p>
<h3>\U0001f4da Our Document Library Is Live and Growing!</h3>
<p>Our searchable academic <strong>Document Library</strong> is now live and already includes over <strong>225 titles</strong> \u2013 with more being added every week.</p>
<p>It includes books, articles, theses, and historical sources relevant to Yoga Studies, sorted by <strong>topic, publication type, and methodology</strong>. And it\u2019s fully open for browsing \u2013 no login required.</p>
<h3>\U0001f4e9 Contribute to the Library</h3>
<p>We're now accepting contributions from the community!<br>
For now, if you\u2019d like to add publications, just send an email to <strong><a rel="noopener">library@yogaresearch.org<span aria-hidden="true"></span></a></strong> with the title, author, and a link or file.<br>
We\u2019ll take care of formatting and uploading it to the site.</p>
<p>(\u26a0\ufe0f Note: If you find any broken or outdated links while browsing the library \u2014 especially if they point to booksellers instead of publishers \u2014 feel free to email us the correct source and we\u2019ll update it.)</p>
<h3>\U0001f510 Log In to Join the Platform</h3>
