About this Display


Latino Books Month, celebrated annually in May since 2004, promotes books by and for Latinos. This month-long celebration is sponsored by the Association of American Publishers (AAP), which encourages booksellers, librarians, and teachers to promote books by and for Latinos and encourage their communities to read Latino books in both English and Spanish.

Discover a new author or re-read a favorite book this month to celebrate Latino fiction, poetry, drama, autobiography, art, and more! View the titles on display in the "Featured Titles" list on the left.
