Join CENTRO’s Digital Projects Specialist, Grace Mckenna, on October 15th for a virtual Library & Archives Lunch Hour as she shares her favorite new items that have been added to the digital collections thanks to the support from the National Endowment for the Humanities for our digitization grant project “100 Years of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture in New York City”.

Since 2021, the CENTRO Archives team has doubled the size of CENTRO’s digital collections by digitizing thousands of materials in our most used collections. New items include documents, photos, letters, and more from collections of prominent figures such as Pura Belpré, Antonia Pantoja, Tato Laviera, Jesús Colón, CHARAS, and more!
