Standing for End of Chumash

What’s the makor for standing by the end of finishing a Chumash when saying “Chazak Chazak….”

Answer:

This is the common custom, and there is some grounds for its based on the the Shibolei Ha-Lekket (372), which refers to the completion of the entire Torah; see also Rivevos Efraim 2:98.
