Princeton University Library's Latin American Ephemera Project has received one of CLIR's 2013 Hidden Collections Awards.  The announcement with a complete list of recipients can be read here.

The award will allow the Princeton library to implement a 3-year project where item-level metadata will be efficiently created for a vast and hidden collection of ephemeral materials from Latin America which will start to be digitized in early 2014 thanks to the financial support offered by the Latin Americanist Research Resources Project (LARRP).  The digitally reformatted and cataloged ephemera will then be available freely and globally on the web through a discovery interface which will include faceted searching and browsing.
