US Latino/a Studies Research Guide

Your best choice for finding Latinx & Latin American journal articles! This database focuses on Latin American issues, but also includes significant US Latinx content. A useful feature in the HAPI interface allows you to limit your searches to find articles about "Hispanics in the US" only. The index provides citations to research articles published worldwide about US Latinx and Latin American issues in the social sciences and humanities. HAPI provides strong coverage of Mexican American, Puerto Rican, Cuban American, and other US Latinx groups. Some full-text may be available for selected publications. Many citations now have links to Google Scholar. (This doesn't mean that Google Scholar has the full-text article, but that it may help identify whether your library subscribes to the journal in question.) Articles are in Spanish, English, Portuguese, French, and other languages.
