Though still hampered by some challenging obstacles, Latin American collection development is not the static, tradition-bound field many believe it to be. Latin American studies librarians have confronted these difficulties head-on and developed strategies to adapt to the field's continuous digital advancements. Presenting perspectives from several independent Latin American libraries, this collection of new essays covers the history of collecting, current strategies in collection development, collaborative collection development, buying trips, and future trends and new technologies.
The Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection is a unit of the General Libraries of the University of Texas at Austin. The collection is a specialized research library with materials from and about Latin America. Information is provided about the collection's rare books, manuscripts, online exhibits, and publications.
