The Lusofonia Collection at Bristol Community College is focused on Portuguese language and culture. We work closely with the LusoCentro on collections and programming. We collect fiction, non-fiction, and reference works in Portuguese and Cape Verdean Creole in addition to physical artifacts from these influential cultures. To donate to the collection, please contact Emily Zekan Brown.
The Dabney Collection, of books, letters, diaries, and other items related to the family of that name, has been created and is housed in the LusoCentro’s offices in building A. It is named for a family of United States Consuls based on Fayal, who served as consuls, in three consecutive generations, for most of the nineteenth century.
