Our library has ordered from Borderland Books on several occasions, and they are a great resource for supplementing Hispanic genealogy collections. They accept purchase orders, and the books arrive in a timely fashion with an invoice.

Got a postcard from these folks and wanted to be sure other people knew
about them - I didn't before yesterday.  As a disclaimer, I have nothing
to do with the company.
