The Library of Congress holds hundreds of collection materials about and from The Bahamas. Curated by librarians in the Hispanic Reading Room, this guide is part of a series of Country Guides that provide quick references for countries and regions from the Caribbean & Luso-Hispanic World. The Hispanic Reading Room is the Library’s portal to the Caribbean, Latin America, Spain and Portugal; the indigenous cultures of those areas; and peoples throughout the world historically influenced by Luso-Hispanic and Caribbean heritage, including diasporic communities in the U.S. This guide offers links to diverse resources on The Bahamas from across the Library including digitized primary sources, selected books and periodicals, online databases, and tips for searching.
