     Librarians at Columbia's Avery Library, New York University's Institute of Fine Arts, and the Research Division of the New York Public Library are working together to offer a two-day symposium directed towards bibliographic resources for the study of Latin American art in New York City. The symposium, Latin American Art Bibliography: A Continuing Conversation, will celebrate the collections of these three institutions, placing them within the context of the field and the larger bibliographic and library landscapes. Supported in part by the Humanities Initiative at NYU the symposium will feature papers and talks, as well as tours of local landmarks.
