Welcome to Our Institutional Buyers' Page
Since 1991, the Borderlands Book Store has strived to assist many institutions with their knowledge and purchases of books on the history of the Spanish and Portuguese Empires, The Mexican Republic, and the United States Borderlands and the genealogies of the Hispanic settlers and colonizers of these areas. We welcome new and returning customers to this special section of our website, which is devoted to tax-exempt institutions including, Public Libraries, Academic Libraries, Academic Departments, Historical/Genealogical Libraries or Societies, and Private Libraries.
