FAQs

Can you order a book for me if you don't have it in stock?

ABSOLUTELY! It can take anywhere from 2-7 days to get you your book, depending on what warehouse our distributor has your copy is stored. We make every effort to clearly communicate expectations of when it will arrive, but there are sometimes shipping delays that are out of our control!

How can I get my book into your store?

We're always excited to support local authors, and we'd love to feature your book in our store. At this time, we can only work with self-published authors on a consignment basis, which allows us to effectively showcase local talent while stocking established authors and high-demand titles.

  • Book Title and Author Name

  • Genre

  • Brief Synopsis

  • Target Audience

  • Key Selling Points

  • Publication Information, Including publication date, publisher (if applicable), and ISBN.

Do you host author events?

Yes! As frequently as time and interest allow. Subscribe to our newsletter for forthcoming events. Local authors can apply to join us at our local author’s fair on July 22, 2025 by emailing us.

I have used books I want to give you! How should I do that?

Thank you for thinking of us! We only sell new books, but we have our very own certified Little Free Library right outside the shop! We gratefully accept donations for the LFL. If the box is stuffed, we’ll hold them in storage and fill the library when it needs a boost.

Can you please donate to my fundraiser?

We're grateful for your request. Our current donation policy limits our support to programs directly related to academic and literacy development for youth and the incarcerated. We've chosen to focus our resources on these areas to maximize our impact and positive social change in our community.
