We are not Amazon.

We follow a “slow business” model.

We source locally whenever possible.

We strive for a balance between people, planet, and prosperity.

Our inventory is carefully curated.

If you don’t see what you want, we’re happy to order it for you.

Most special orders will take 3 to 5 days to fill.

Good things are worth waiting for.

We welcome your pre-loved books.

We believe in maximizing the life of every book and we gratefully accept your pre-loved books (check our “Book Donations” page for information and updates).

We offer store credit as a thank you for your donation.

Unsellable books are responsibly donated, used for crafts, and/or offered to local artists to produce handmade paper.

We stand for minimal waste and maximum delight.

We offer complimentary hot and cold water for anyone with a personal beverage container. We also have complimentary tea and hot chocolate.

Our WiFi is free; please use it wisely.

We ask you to be considerate of others.
