Donations

The IAI library is the largest European specialist library on Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal, and one of the three most extensive collections on this region worldwide. Donations and bequests in the form of estates and donations, as well as monetary donations, make an important contribution to the continuous expansion of the holdings. In addition to books, periodicals and electronic documents, the extensive knowledge archive contains numerous special collections such as sound recordings, maps, photographs, films and posters.

Some of the book holdings have been damaged by aging, intensive use, and insect or acid damage and urgently require conservation treatment. Donations can help to ensure that the affected works can be restored, digitized, and properly stored.
