Oaxaca Lending Library The Oaxaca Lending Library (OLL) Books and Reference Materials for all ages in English and Spanish.

The Oaxaca Lending Library (also known as the OLL) at its heart is a Library with a collection of books, periodicals, reference materials, and audio-visual offerings in both English and Spanish. Pieced together from financial and material donations across our history, our collection owes its existence to the generosity of our members, friends, and other organizations. The "lending" part of our nam

e is significant, as the Oaxaca Lending Library is one of the few libraries in all of Mexico that allows its articles to be lent out to its members. Oaxaca Lending Library hosts Educational Presentations, Hikes and Tours withing the region. The library serves as a community center for both Oaxacan and Expats alike.

This months featured book collection: Crime Pays

Whether you're drawn to the meticulous planning of a heist or the psychological thrill of a cat-and-mouse chase, these titles promise to keep you on the edge of your seat, questioning just how far some are willing to go for power, wealth, or even just survival.
