The Consortium in Latin American and Caribbean Studies offers sets of books available for K-12 and collegiate level instruction that teachers can borrow free of cost for use in their North Carolina classrooms. We believe it is crucial for young children living in a diverse society to be aware of their own cultural identities and embrace those of others. Through these collections, the Consortium hopes to support educators and associated school officials who foster cross-cultural awareness and teach their students about these important regions of the world. To borrow these resources, please fill out the request form.
