Embedding Latin American Archives Into Library Instruction And Practice, Marisol Ramos Jul 2010

Embedding Latin American Archives Into Library Instruction And Practice, Marisol Ramos

UConn Library Presentations

Being both a librarian and an archivist/curator, it is one of my jobs to find ways to embed primary sources into my library instruction. This paper discuss the ways that I have found to integrate the Latin American and Caribbean archival holdings that I manage in the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center into my library services. I will discuss briefly some of the strategies, such as digitization projects, LibGuides and Show and Tells events, that I have used to bridge my archival work with my library work to provide better services to my constituents.
