I’m pleased to continue our discussion of research on Cuba, this time on repositories located in Cuba. Have you done research there (or anywhere else in Latin America) that you would like to tell our readers about? Do you work at a library or archive or have you created a digital collection that focuses on Latin America? This is a great space to alert researchers about your resources. If you’re interested, please contact Gretchen Pierce at gkpierce@ship.edu or fill out this Google Form. I’m always on the lookout for new guest bloggers.
