<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400">This panel will examine models for conducting collaborative scholarship within colonial and nineteenth-century Latin American studies. We seek, in particular, proposals by diverse
teams working across disciplinary, institutional, linguistic, and national boundaries. We invite participation by research and teaching faculty; archivists, librarians, museum curators and other cultural heritage and information science professionals; undergraduate
and graduate students; community members; and other stakeholders. </span></p>

<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400">This panel is sponsored by the Alliance for Digital Research on Early Latin America (adrela.net), and we encourage proposals related to projects that employ digital methods. However,
the focus of the session is collaboration, not technology, and we therefore welcome presentations dealing with projects that do not involve digital components but that present paradigms that may have relevance for scholars working in a digital realm. </span></p>

<span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Please send an abstract (250 words max.) and a 2-3 sentence bio for each presenter on the proposal by August 20 to

We will send notification of acceptance by August 25, and will need all participants listed on accepted proposals to ensure that their LASA memberships are current by September 1.
