Bookmans News
We love animals - dogs, cats, hamsters, porcupines, it doesn't matter. It's why our four-legged friends are always welcome in our stores (on a leash, please!) and why every July we put a special emphasis on a variety of animal-themed events and organizations. This month's roster includes pet adoptions, craft projects for kids, presentations by the Desert Museum and Wildlife World Zoo, and even pet psychics. Check the Events Calendar for a full listing.
Every quarter, Bookmans highlights the work of an important organization from each of our Arizona markets in our stores and on the web. Learn what you can do to help support the invaluable work of others in your community.

Jason Calhoon's Cafe Van Go - the enticingly red van you'll find parked in front of Bookmans Grant most mornings and early afternoons - will now be closed Saturdays and Sundays as we all wait for the weather to cool down. Cafe Van Go will still be open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., serving up some of the best espresso and coffee in Tucson. Stopped by to give it a "go" yet? We hear the espresso shots and the Americano are particularly ace.
Bookmans is once again a proud sponsor of Happy Birthday, Tucson!, the city's fourth annual celebration of the Old Pueblo.

We'll bring our own special flavor to the proceedings with FREE "Made-in-Tucson Movie Madness" screenings at the Loft Cinema.
