The Book Co-op has organized several activities to help promote local books. The first project was the New Mexico Books & More store. The co-op now regularly holds informal monthly meetings where specific book topics are discussed; these usually take place at lunch on the last Friday of each month.
Projects organized or sponsored by NM Book Co-op:
The New Mexico Book Catalog is totally sold out! We expect that it will be mailed to every bookstore and library in the region by mid-summer.
