| description | The Tribunal of the Holy Office was in charge of watching over books to maintain religious orthodoxy in the territories of the Spanish Crown, an activity that was justified by the effect that books have everywhere on the social, cultural, economic, political and religious spheres. In line with the social concerns of this time, different mechanisms of inquisitorial control were instrumentalized, paying special attention to prohibited books and those that needed to be expurgated. This article analyzes one of these mechanisms of control, known as the “library visit,” through the files found in the General Archive of the Nation from between the years 1716 and 1720. This testimony allows us to reconstruct and explain many aspects of these visits, which were conducted in New Spain each time a new index was published, and whose effects can be seen to this day in the many antiquarian books conserved in different national and international archives. |

Fue el Tribunal del Santo Oficio el que se ocupó de la vigilancia de los libros para mantener la ortodoxia religiosa en los territorios de la Monarquía Española. Una actividad, entre otras, justificada por el efecto que tenían los libros en todos los espacios sociales, culturales, económicos, políticos y religiosos en cualquier territorio. Tal vigilancia, derivada por las preocupaciones sociales de su tiempo, fue instrumentada con diferentes mecanismos de control inquisitorial con atención especial sobre libros prohibidos y los que se debían expurgar. Este texto analiza uno de esos controles denominado como “visita a las bibliotecas” a través de un expediente del Archivo General de la Nación, fechado entre 1716 y 1720. Este testimonio permite reconstruir y explicar numerosos aspectos de esta visita que se realizaba en la Nueva España cada vez que se publicaba un nuevo índice inquisitorial, y cuyos efectos se encuentran todavía en numerosos libros antiguos conservados en diferentes repositorios nacionales e internacionales.
