Golden Buddha
The society library has a small section of books and images on the religions of Asia. Buddhism features quite heavily due to the ongoing interest of members in Tibet and Nepal, and the archives include not only images of key Buddhist sites but also a portrait of the 13th Dalai Lama, taken in Calcutta in 1910.
