Additional materials related to this proposal are available only to logged-in member users.

First announced in 2016, the CRL/LHL Global Resources Partnership [2] in Science, Technology and Engineering targets historical, pre-1950s serial titles identified as being of high value for historical research. The project combines partial runs of titles held by the two organizations, prioritized by subject (as informed by strengths declared in the partnership Collection Management Policies [3]), and clustered around specific themes or subjects.

In the coming year, the list of titles for potential inclusion include serials published in Latin America about a variety of scientific topics, such as mining, astronomy, agriculture, engineering, botany, and geology.

Reasons for consideration: 

Many of these titles have not yet been digitized, and they represent topics of high research value.
