We have a wide array of digital offerings for you!: Check out our new Mexico research guide: We proudly introduce our Mexico: Hispanic Division Country Guide, the first online Research Guide in our Hispanic Division Country Guide series.

Listen to some of our audios from our Archive of Hispanic Literature on Tape (AHLOT), and some episodes from our podcast La Biblioteca, which include conversations about Pablo Neruda, Octavio Paz, and Carlos Drummond de Andrade, among other prominent Latin American poets.

This example can certainly be applied to the virtual learning environment! Help us transcribe! Thanks to everyone who joined our virtual #Herencia transcribe-a-thon on March 19! It was a great chance to get together virtually and help make these historical documents easier to find. We started transcribing 52 new pages, advanced 30 to review, and completed 19!
