LACLI – About Us
Since the beginning of this project in March 2020, LACLI has been a collective effort to share with the world a warehouse of online free e-resources with Latin American, Caribbean, U.S. Latinx, and Iberian full content. This project was launched and is managed by the Latin America Northeast Libraries Consortium (LANE). LACLI was originally spearheaded by LANE members Jesús Alonso-Regalado (University at Albany, SUNY), Paloma Celis Carbajal (NYPL), and Talía Guzmán González.
We would like to acknowledge Judith Alspach and James Simon from the Center for Research Libraries (CRL) for sharing the data that helped start this project and Orchid Mazurkiewicz for authorizing us to adapt the Hispanic American Periodicals Index (HAPI) subjects list. We are also thankful to the many people that have contributed to this project. The names of our coordinators (LANE Executive team) and long-term collaborators are:
