BOOK DONATIONS NEEDED
With the decline in winter visitors the OLL's book donations have dwindled to a trickle. We're asking those, who are in Oaxaca, to go through your home library and donate books you've already read and feel you can part with. And if you are coming down please consider packing what you can to donate to the cause. ¡Gracias!
