# Memory of the World Register – Latin America and the Caribbean

The first inscriptions on the UNESCO Memory of the World International Register were made in 1997. By creating a compendium of important library and archive holdings – including books, manuscripts, audio-visual materials, and digital documents – the program aims to use its networks of experts to exchange information and raise resources for the preservation, digitization, and dissemination of documentary materials. As of 2023, 494 pieces of documentary heritage have been included in the register. Of these, 93 were nominated by countries from the region of Latin America and the Caribbean. These include recordings of folk music, ancient languages and phonetics, aged remnants of religious and secular manuscripts, collective lifetime works of renowned giants of literature, science and music, copies of landmark motion pictures and short films, and accounts documenting changes in the world’s political, economic and social stage.
