ALMA BOOK STORE
Please note that Wolf Property Management, the donated book and DVD "Drop Off" location, has moved. Wolf Property Management is now located in the shopping plaza where the Comex paint store is located. They are right next door to the new Victoria Farmacia. For anyone who did not know, you can "drop off" donated books and return rented DVD's to Wolf Property Management. The in-town "Drop Off" location is a huge advantage to the ALMA Book Store. Their generosity has been a continuing "gift" and we thank them.
