Welcome to the Hispanic Section of the British Library. The aim of the Section is to acquire and make available selected publications in the humanities and social sciences at research level from Spain, Portugal, Latin America, the Spanish-speaking Caribbean and the former Hispanic territories in Asia and Africa. Languages covered are Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Galician, Basque and Amerindian languages. Current, second-hand and antiquarian material in the humanities and social sciences is acquired by purchase and donation. An information service is provided for specialist enquiries about the Hispanic collections and requests for bibliography relating to the Hispanic world.
