LA/Latinx Digital Resources

Links to Digital Resources and Projects, High-Resolution Image Collections

With so many useful digital resources and projects available online, I am trying to gather as many as I can to support ALAA members. The plan is to create a “Resources” page on the ALAA website for us all to use for our research/scholarship and teaching.

Currently, the resources and projects listed here are alphabetized and organized by general time period. However, if there are other categories that would be helpful and useful, please add them or change anything I’ve done. Anyone can add material. Please provide a title followed by the link within parentheses. Sources can be in any language.

Please contact me (Lauren Kilroy-Ewbank, lauren.kilroy@pepperdine.edu or @LGKEwbank on twitter) or Daen Palma Huse (ALAA webmaster, ucwcdhu@ucl.ac.uk) if you would like to add anything to this list for the ALAA website.

Thank you!
