The US Latino Digital Humanities (USLDH) Center supported, through a competitive grant in Latino Digital Humanities, the digitization of documents relating to migration held in the Archivo General de Puerto Rico. This work is done by interns Victoria Arredondo and Iulianna Rosario Vázquez.
The USLDH serves as a venue for scholarship focused on the US Latino written legacy that has been lost, absent, repressed or underrepresented. The USLDH Center provides a physical space for the development, support and training in digital humanities projects using a vast collection of newspapers, photographs and digital materials; creates opportunities and facilities for digital publication of Latino-based projects and scholarship; promotes and fosters interdisciplinary scholarly work; provides a communal virtual space to share knowledge and projects related to Latino digital humanities; and establishes a Latino digital humanities hub.
USLDH Co-Directors: Gabriela Baeza Ventura and Carolina Villarroel.
