Search digital video: Archivo Mesoamericano
Three decades of Latin American change are presented through this searchable digital video archive. The physical videos remain stored where they were recorded in Latin America. Miles away, Indiana University scholars are long-term partners in a multinational effort to preserve, describe, and digitally present the footage.

Fall 2020 Hours and Services
We are still, and always, here to help.
The IU Libraries' buildings open this fall will allow reservation-only seating for studying. Some services are appointment only, and many operations have been modified to adjust to the global pandemic.
Learn about changes to access to our collections and spaces, as well as how to quickly connect to a librarian who can help with your research needs.
Where can I study on campus?
Students who need a place to study have choices. IU Libraries offers a reserved seating system, while other spaces on campus are available for non-reservation, drop-in study. For Fall 2020 many classrooms have been set aside as open study spaces, while traditional computer labs remain open and ready for students. All spaces require students to wear a mask while using an indoor space.
When your work is done, IU also has spaces for recreation and arts and culture activities.
