Visiting Library Scholars
Each year the LAII awards Richard E. Greenleaf Visiting Library Scholar grants, providing scholars from across the country and around the world the opportunity to work as visiting researchers with The University of New Mexico's Latin American library collections, one of the largest and most complete Latin American collections in the country. The award honors Dr. Richard E. Greenleaf, distinguished scholar of colonial Latin American history, and his extensive career in teaching, research, and service.
When possible, the LAII records scholars' presentations and makes this archive available publicly. Please browse recent presentation recordings below.
