We know, we know. We don't look a day over 30. But this August really does mark our 95th anniversary of bookselling. Come down and celebrate with us. Stay tuned for the details.

In the meantime, take a look at our store history and the scrapbook from our 90th anniversary celebration.

8/28 WEDESDAY 6PM — Lit Knit

8/30 FRIDAY 6:30PM — Collectors' Book Salon

Book-lovers and collectors meet in the Rare Book department for the Collectors' Book Salon every final Friday of each month, January through October. We begin casually around 6:30 PM with socializing, light refreshments, and shared bibliolust. At 7:15, an invited bibliophile leads the Collectors' Chat about a topic of her or his particular knowledge and passion. Each Salon, Tony offers a special deal on rare books that is only for Salon guests.

The August Collectors' Book Salon will be dedicated to our 95-year history. Instead of a designated bibliophile chat, we want stories, of course with the appreciated show-and-tells, when possible. Do you have an interesting story involving this bookstore? What is the oldest memory you have? Did you find an amazing treasure? Were you changed? If you have a good tale about our old but modern bookstore, please attend the August Salon and share it with us. We attend to the present and look to the future. On the 30th of August, we will reminisce.
