About the Project

The Lloyd Best Archive: The Trinidad and Tobago Review
Project Grant

The Lloyd Best Institute of the Caribbean in Trinidad and Tobago is partnering with the Watkinson Library at Trinity College in Hartford to digitize the Lloyd Best Archive, preserve it according to OAIS standards, and make it accessible. The collection consists of newspapers, research papers, correspondence (personal and professional), hand-written notes in copybooks, speeches, flyers, pamphlets, and consultancy reports. This project is focused on digitizing and documenting the full run of the Trinidad and Tobago Review. The collection will be described by Lloyd Best's daughter, widow, and friends which will make sure that both the content and the meaning of the archive is preserved.
