GUZMAN GUZMAN, Yolanda. Librarian Vocation among Mercedarians in New Spain. Results of Investigation. Investig. bibl [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.91, pp.49-63.  Epub Nov 15, 2022. ISSN 2448-8321.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.24488321xe.2022.91.58557.

This article focuses on some reflections about the profession of the Librarian in the Order of Mercy. For that reason, an historical document preserved in the National Library of Mexico, was used as a primary source, under the signature of MS.10252. This manuscript is analyzed from the historical perspective of working only with one document, but takes into account some postulates from Studies about historical libraries, as those made by Concepcion Rodríguez Parada and Ignacio Osorio Romero.

Keywords : Conventual Libraries; Librarian; Order of Mercy; New Spain.
