amp Hispanic Resources: News & Events: Happy New Year/ Feliz Año/ Feliz Ano Novo! By content.govdelivery.com Published On :: Thu, 02 Jan 2020 16:23:05 -0600 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. Full Article

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. The Handbook of Latin American Studies (HLAS) can also point you to poetry resources.

Follow the link in the HLAS Web record to listen to an AHLOT recording of the poet reading his work. Resources for virtual learning For educators, here are some handy resources that include primary sources from our collections: * Huexotzingo Codex Lesson Plan * Waldseemüller Map Lesson Plan * Immigration and Oral History Lesson Plan In addition, we would like to share our recent interview with Syrianna Santacroce, a local Spanish language high school teacher, who used the digitally available recordings from the AHLOT as part of her class curriculum last year. 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! Not bad for a day’s work. Even better, we exceeded our goal of 100 transcribers, with 112 as the day closed. If you haven’t already, please check out this campaign, and try your hand at transcribing or reviewing the transcriptions awaiting a second pass.
