AK Smiley Bookstore

The bookstore is completely staffed by volunteers working in two hour shifts. Many of the Volunteers have been serving in the bookstore for years. All the books (and cds, dvds, magazines, vinyl, etc) are donated. The bookstore is closed Mondays to allow a special team of volunteers to restock the bookstore. The prices are truly "the best deal in town!" with children books starting at 50 cents (25 cents if you are a member of the Friends). There is a Bag Sale the first Saturday of the month, where you can fill a bag of books for 5 dollars if you're a member of the Friends and 8 dollars if you're not. We have a large Young Adult section, in addition to children's, trade paperback, mass market paperback, hardcover in Fiction and Non Fiction. The Friends also have a thriving auction and run sales several times a year. The bookstore is located in the basement of the Library. There are both stairs and an elevator. The restroom is located upstairs past the water fountain on your right hand side.

Bookstore in the bottom floor of the library. I love the silent auction. You can get old books, new books, nonfiction, fiction, kids' books, DVDs, VHSs, etc all through it for great bargains. Weekly silent auctions end Tuesday at 1pm. It's right inside the main entrance of the library. Also, on the first Saturday of every month, there's a book sale in the bookstore where you can fill up a whole bag for $6 (nonmembers) or $5 (members). All money goes toward buying new books for the library. All staff are volunteers.

Great store. Nice employee.

Great variety of books and awesome customer service .....a hidden gem ! Located inside the Redlands library/down stairs bookstore.

Lovely, quiet place to come read or buy some clean used books. The people ee spoke with were very pleasant.

Beautiful library. Good price on used books.

The librarians are grumpy, and worthless to help you out!
