Latin American Cookbooks
The Culinary Collection of Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Studies’ Arthur & Elisabeth Schlesinger Library would welcome donations of cookbooks in English, Spanish, or Portuguese, to expand its Latin American collection.
The books don’t have to be “collector’s items” to be useful; quite ordinary cookbooks provide a mirror on daily life.
If you would like to donate cookbooks, please contact Barbara Haber at 617-496-8651.
