University of Texas at Austin

In 1978, Mildred Vinson Boyer published The Texas Collection of Comedias Sueltas. The catalog included only pre-1834 imprints from the collections of the Perry-Castañeda (Main) Library of the University of Texas at Austin, from the University’s Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection, and from the Humanities Research Center. UT has created a dedicated online catalog https://norman.hrc.utexas.edu/sueltas/  that contains their entire holdings to the beginning of the 20th century.
Jim Kuhn, Associate Director for Library Division at the HRC, was one of the first librarians to understand and appreciated the value of this project. He was instrumental in having HRC export their records to us and populate our database. It has been more difficult to get images of the items in our database.  It seems that some had been done before the pandemic closed the library and we hope that the remainder of the sueltas can be scanned or photographed in the not-too-far future.
