The Lewis J. Ort Library staff welcomes you to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 - October 15) with a new display on the 5th floor of the library.
The display celebrates this year's theme: Hispanics: Be Proud of Your Past and Embrace the Future.
The display highlights some of the resources the library has about the history and culture of Hispanics in the United States.
The Hispanic Network Magazine provides context for the difference between the terms Hispanic and Latino:
"Hispanic and Latino are often used interchangeably though they actually mean two different things. Hispanic refers to people who speak Spanish and/or are descended from Spanish-speaking populations, while Latino refers to people who are from or descended from people from Latin America."
