Apparently there is another print collection at UNM in the Center for Southwest Research: 

On April 28, 2017, Dr Suzanne Schadl brought out several portfolios from Mexican artists for display, in the Waters Room, in the Center for Southwest Research, at the Zimmerman Library of the University of New Mexico:.
