How it's going:
You can find Casita Azul on Facebook!
Facebook is currently the best platform to connect York University to our Las Nubes library. See and share our hours, courses and programs on our pages!
We offer programs to our students, researchers and local community and we provide access to meaningful collections.
York students, faculty and researchers, please consult our Research Guide for a quick look at some selected resources before you visit Las Nubes.
