Intro To Oaxaca

Every Monday at 11:00 AM

Returning after a hiatus, this popular introduction to our adopted city is a great help to visitors and potential residents alike. If you're new to Oaxaca come join us for this introduction presented by a full-time resident and member of OLL. They will answer questions and give their perspective on what's it's like to live in Oaxaca every Monday.

~ FREE ~

Book Salon: Mysteries with a Sense of Place
Led by Linda Martin
Thursday, Dec. 18 at 11:00 AM
Not surprising, most of us who find ourselves in Oaxaca love to travel.  And we can travel even more without the horrors of airport strip searches and Montezuma's revenge when we get our hands on a good mystery with a sense of place:  Henning Mankell (Sweden), Lawrence Block, (NYC), Ian Rankin (Scotland), and Qiu Xiaolong (Shanghai). Choose one of the selections from the complete list (click HERE) and come tell us about it.  Selected books are grouped and available at the OLL Check Out Desk.  These discussions are FREE.
Book Salons:  3rd Thursday of the month at 11 AMBook_Salon.htmlshapeimage_2_link_0

Albergue Infantil Josefino

Giving Tree

The library once again will sponsor Three Kings Day gifts for the children at Albergue Infantil Josefino here in Oaxaca.  Come pick an ornament off the Library tree with a child's name, picture and information about him/her to guide your gift giving.  Wrap the gift, include the "ornament" you picked from the tree and return it to the Library before December 30.  Then come join the fun at the Albergue on January 6th, time to be announced.  ...and thank you for your generosity.
