Cooperating Association

The monument operates a bookstore in the visitor center to provide information about subjects related to the park. Books about volcanoes, geology, history, and animals are available in addition to postcards, bookmarks, posters and instant cameras.

The store is operated by Western National Parks Association. It is a nonprofit cooperating association of the National Park Service. Headquartered in Tucson, Arizona, the association was founded in 1938 as the Southwest Monuments Association to support the interpretive activities of the National Park Service.
