AMÉRICAS AWARD CEREMONY AND WORKSHOP, 5:00 pm-7:30 pm
Each year the Consortium of Latin American Studies Programs (CLASP) and the Hispanic Division celebrates winning titles by holding an award ceremony at the Library of Congress during Hispanic Heritage Month. All are welcome to attend the ceremony and workshop following.

2019 Award Winners

Undocumented: A Worker’s Fight by Duncan Tonatiuh (Abrams Books, 2018)
2019 Honor Books

Following the awards ceremony, author/artist Duncan Tonatiuh, CLASP, the Learning and Innovation Office, and the Hispanic Division at the Library of Congress offer a hands-on workshop inspired by Tonatiuh’s award winning codex Undocumented: A Worker's Fight.

Participants will create visual reflections on their own life experiences and combine them in an accordion folded book displayed in the Hispanic Reading Room through Hispanic Heritage Month. This maker opportunity enables participants to experience hybrid reading and writing traditions through Mesoamerican codices and Tonatiuh’s book. A reception as well as a book sale and signing will follow.

Hispanic Resources: News & Events: Tomorrow! Ladino Songs and the Sephardic Diaspora

 

Friday, November 8 - 12:00pm

Location:  Mumford Room, James Madison Memorial Building (6th floor Rm 649) 101 Independence Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20540

 

Sarah Aroeste, Shai Bachar, and Ellie Falaris Ganelin perform Ladino music and offer educational commentary about this language. Ladino is the language of Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain during the Inquisition, and spoken in Mediterranean and Balkan regions before the Holocaust. It is an endangered language because numerous speakers were killed during the Holocaust. Aroeste describes Ladino as a pan-Mediterranean language crossing linguistic and cultural boundaries. A display of rare Ladino books curated by the Hebraic Section in the African and Middle Eastern Division at the Library of Congress accompanies this performance.

 

Free tickets available via Eventbrite

Hispanic Resources: News & Events: 50 New Literary Recordings Available to Stream Online

The annual online release of material from the Archive of Hispanic Literature on Tape has gone live! These year's release includes recordings with Jorge Luis Borges, Vinicius de Moraes, and renowned Latinx poets such as Carmen Giménez Smith, Valerie Martínez, and Rigoberto González. Curated here in the Library of Congress since 1943, the AHLOT is a collection of audio recordings of poets and prose writers from Latin America, the Iberian Peninsula, the Caribbean, and the Latinx community in the United States reading from their works. Every year we make 50 new recordings from this collection available for online streaming.

Hispanic Resources: News & Events: Happy New Year/ Feliz Año/ Feliz Ano Novo!

Happy New Year/ feliz año/ feliz ano novo from the Library of Congress’ Hispanic Division! We feel privileged for the opportunities 2019 offered to continue our mission of sharing the Library’s wonderfully rich Luso-Hispanic collections. We are thrilled to welcome 2020 and look forward to its surprises. 

In case you missed it, here are some highlights from this past year:

Jaime Conlan and Sam Awad, an intern and Librarian in Residence, shared accounts of their work in the “Library of Congress, 4 Corners of the World” blog. We are grateful to learn with these budding professionals. 

We inaugurated a new series of events in our Reading Room’s vestibule to connect the public with distinctive collections and services against the backdrop of the impressive Portinari Murals. With nearly 30 partners, we welcomed 765 participants to combined collections displays, presentations or readings, and maker workshops.  Some highlights included a reading with Portuguese award-winning poet Ana Luisa Amaral; an homage to the late Argentine poet Alejandra Pizarnik; a Wikipedia edit-a-thon and a workshop with Chicano muralist Mario Torero.

We continue to create more online accessibility to recordings from the Archive of Hispanic Literature on Tape and to recent acquisitions on and from Latin America through the Handbook of Latin American Studies, with volume 73 published and 74 on the way.

In 2019, the Hispanic Division also celebrated the impressive career and retirement of Juan Manuel Peréz (July), while welcoming Liliana Lopez (September) Dani Thurber (January).

We look forward to expanding our efforts and continue connecting users, creators, and learners with our treasures and resources. Please let us know if there is something you would like to see us prioritize in 2020 and stay tuned!

Many of our effort are possible thanks to generous support of the Huntington Endowment, for which we remain grateful, now 80 years after the establishment of the Hispanic Reading Room.
