Latin American Collections (Archival)

Visual Collections

Collection Strengths

UNM's Manuscript holdings are particularly strong in Colonial Spanish American Sources, 20th Century Mexican and Guatemalan sources and Visual and Musical resources. Also notable are travel related manuscripts and personal or institutional collections addressing other parts of Latin America. The lists here are not exhaustive, so researchers should consult New Mexico Archives Online (NMAO)– an inventory of archival collections in Colorado, New Mexico, and Wyoming, which is technologically and administratively managed by UNM University Libraries. Please contact the Curator of Latin American Collections, Margie Montañez with an questions or recommendations.
