The '''''Harvard Oriental Series''''' is a book series founded in 1891 by [[Charles Rockwell Lanman]] and [[Henry Clarke Warren]]. Lanman served as its inaugural editor (1891-1934) for the first 37 volumes. Other editors of the series include [[Walter Eugene Clark]] (1934-1950, volumes 38–44), [[Daniel H. H. Ingalls, Sr.|Daniel Henry Holmes Ingalls]] (1950-1983, volumes 45–48) and Gary Tubb (1983-1990, volume 49).

Currently in its 93rd volume, the series is edited by [[Michael Witzel]], the [[Wales Professor of Sanskrit]] in the Department of [[Sanskrit]] and [[Indian Studies]] at [[Harvard University]], and distributed by the [[Harvard University Press]]. A subseries, '''''Harvard Oriental Series Opera Minora''''', "aims at the swift publication of important materials that cannot be included in the mainly text-oriented Harvard Oriental Series."
