<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Catalogus Catalogorum''' (Latin, "Catalog of Catalogs") is a list of all existing works written in the ancient [[Indian language (India)|Indian language]] varieties, including [[Sanskrit]], and their authors, begun in 1891 by the German [[Indology|Indologist]] and [[Sanskritist]] [[Theodor Aufrecht]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Manuscripts {{!}} Ministry of Culture, Government of India |url=https://indiaculture.gov.in/manuscripts |access-date=2024-03-14 |website=indiaculture.gov.in}}</ref><br />
<br />
Theodor Aufrecht himself wrote a total of three volumes between 1891 and 1903. In November 1935, this work was resumed under the name New Catalogus Catalogorum at the suggestion of [[A. C. Woolner]], the then vice-chancellor of the [[University of the Punjab]], and with the support of the British government, and is now under the leadership of the [[University of Madras]]. Just two years later, a new edition of the Catalogus Catalogorum was published based on Aufrecht's work.<br />
<br />
In 1949, the first volume of the revised New Catalogus Catalogorum, which was planned for forty volumes, was published. Fourteen of the planned forty volumes have been published so far (2013) <ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last=University of Madras. |url=https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/001765477 |title=New catalogus catalogorum: an alphabetical register of Sanskrit and allied works and authors |last2=Aufrecht |first2=Theodor |last3=Dash |first3=Siniruddha. |last4=Ramabai |first4=E.
