The Tibet Album presents more than 6000 photographs spanning 30 years of Tibet's history. These extraordinary photographs are a unique record of people long gone and places changed beyond all recognition. They also document the ways that British visitors encountered Tibet and Tibetans.

In pictures: Tibetan Nomads on the BBC website has twelve images from contemporary Tibetan Nomad life and shows something of the reality of the Chinese enforced settlement project.  Well worth a look.

The Tibet Oral History Project is invaluable. It provides intimate portraits of the last generation to live in a free, unoccupied Tibet, and preserves for future generations their memories of their homeland.  For example, click here for a full transcription of the interview with Lobsang Tashi, a nomad originally from the Ngari Dhargaling region.
