Libros 787
Libros787.com is an online bookstore curated by Latinos, for Latinos.
In today's digital age, online bookstores have the power to bring a wealth of knowledge and information to people around the world. Even though technology and online shopping are becoming more popular, it is still very hard to buy books written by Latin American authors, especially in Spanish.
How do we make Latino literature easier for everyone to access? What if we told you that five years ago, right after getting hit by a category five hurricane, two friends came up with the idea of creating an online bookstore that would connect Latino authors and readers all across Puerto Rico and the US?
Despite making up nearly 19% of the population, Latinos continue to be underrepresented or misrepresented in the book publishing industry, according to a new report released by the Government Accountability Office.
For Latin American authors and readers, this can lead to a lack of representation in the literary canon, as well as a scarcity of books that accurately reflect the experiences and perspectives of the Latino community.
