What a cool book shop! The staff are super nice, they helped me bring a bunch of books from my car. I will tell folks about this local gem.
We are a used book bookstore, not a library. As an all volunteer 501 (c) 3 we accept donations of books, audiobooks, magazines, CDs, DVDs, puzzles, and games which we then resell to the public. The money these sales raise, after our overhead, go to help fund materials and programs at the Jose Cisneros Cielo Vista Library. During the pandemic and while awaiting the reopening of our branch library, we are working with the Bookmobile, the Irving Schwartz branch and the Judge Marquez branch libraries, as well as other area non-profits.We look forward to seeing you in the bookstore.Mary Kirschenbaum,Acting Manager
Wonderful selection of books, excellent staff and very clean
I had the pleasure of visiting this bookstore recently and I definitely found what I was looking for. They have a very large selection of books, magazines as well as DVDs. The service by the ladies working there is wonderful. This is definitely the place to go if youre looking for books at a reasonable price.
Great place! The whole staff is super helpful. Remember to bring cash or check.They have a great education section, its a hidden gem for teachers.
Fairly good selection when theyre open, very courteous staff!
I love this place. I go to several of the Friends of the Library Bookstores around town but I think this one is my favorite due to their larger selection. It is not a normal bookstore. Dont expect too much help from the people working. They are volunteers and the there is no catalog or listing of the books they have in stock. The volunteers are always very nice and happy to help point you to the area where youll be most likely to find what youre looking for but usually its up to you to actually search for it, but for me thats the fun part :D
I always find something whenever I visit! And the ladies working there are wonderful...wish they were open daily!
I hate when businesses list their store on Google maps but didnt set the days and schedule that they are open. This library only open Wednesday and Saturday. So I lost my time today :(
Great book finds and great prices!!📚
