Used to use this place all the time for used books. But since the new owners took over about 20 years ago the place went downhill. The new owners arent very nice and dont have important information on new games nor do they have the games ready on the day the game was supposed to come out. Customer service definitely took a dive. The only nice person there is the nice elderly lady who seems to own the place. But wont go back.

This place is a quiet and relaxing place to look for books. The staff is getting caring and polite and extremely helpful. It's great that they have so many different books that others don't want so other people have the chance to read them. The books are in good shape. You can donate any books you have and they treat them with respect. Any books they don't need they pass on to the friends of the library to sell. It's a great idea and a good place to go. They also sell games as well.

It's a great little place that's hidden out of sight. Tons of used books and on the other side you can play all sort of games (magic, yugioh). They are encouraging to younger children too.

A lot of really good books and that's hard to come across nowadays. Everything is ebooks and all that or you can actually walk in there and look around and find a real book.

I've been a customer of The Bookshelf for nearly 30 years and I've never had a bad experience. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the store always organized, clean, and well stocked. As its almost entirely a used bookstore, you won't find new releases and best sellers are often in and out quickly. For classics, old favorites, and books that were hot just a few weeks ago; you can count on finding something great to read.Books in lightly used condition are good for store credit (I think its still 25% cover price), and books purchased there are always returnable under the same conditions. Definitely the local Mecca for avid, spendthrifty readers.

It's infuriating that some companies think that a Facebook Business page is a reasonable alternative to a proper website. It's not. Not everyone has or wants Facebook, and you're cutting off a substantial percentage of your potential clientele from accessing your services by not having an actual website. And if you DO have a website, don't tell me the URL in response to this review, simply update your Google Website hotlink to lead people to the website. It's not hard.

My 1st time in the new location. Good job! Well organized but may I suggest some improvements to the lighting? A few corners were really dark and it was hard to see the titles.Great selection though and the staff was very helpful.

A great store with wonderful staff. They have an extensive collection of books from all genres at good used prices. The attached gameshelf means they also have a good selection of game resource texts also.
