“Nice store with helpful , friendly employees well stocked, easy to browse . Only concern , people sit for hours doing email at Starbucks area , so no seating to relax with a coffee , not a library”
“Simply one of the best used bookstores I have ever been to. The prices and selection are amazing. It's clean and organized-ish. The staff was friendly. Definitely worth a stop!”
“La librairie est un véritable trésor pour les petits et les grands amateurs de livres. Le coin pour enfants avec des livres musicaux est une brillante idée. L'ambiance chaleureuse et accueillante, avec une table et chaises pour dessiner, a rendu notre visite encore plus mémorable pour mon fils. Une très bonne expérience pour toute la famille!”
“What a treasure this place is. Was nearby and randomly searched for a record store. Has a great selection of new and used records, friendly service, and the bonus is it has one of the best offerings of manga I have seen in the area.”
“The best small used-and-new bookshop that I know of around here, as of April 2024 - thoughtful selections, helpful and truly pleasant ownership and staff, sections well-placed and well-organized (even the relatively obscure scholarly shelves). Pricing is more than fair (most stock is used). And it just feels good to be in there. Like old times.”
“Shoutout to Anna. Thank you for answering all my questions on books and premium benefits. You were so patient and kind. To me and my books. Thanks for gently putting them in my new tote bag. Appreciate it! ?
Bathrooms are so clean. Love how it’s easy to clean for the staff too. Great Barnes and Noble location with free parking.”

“Travelling in Gaithersburg for the first time, I just chanced across this little trove. I’m so very glad I did. Not just because I got a couple of records; more importantly I got to meet Dave and feel the welcome he gives to all.”
“The Science Building was fabulous. Went there for the Fitzgerald Conference and found this modern designed building to be structured beautifully. Plenty of natural sun light thru out the building. Lecture spaces and classrooms were comfortable. Liked the class room tables and chairs. The lounge seating areas and nooks where one can study or chat with class mates and colleagues. The design of the doorless bathrooms was smart. I do enjoy walking the MC campus. This school is the he best place for the Fitzgerald conference.”

“They repaired a 100 year old bible in shambles. The binding was broken in several places, the cover was off . And my dad years ago covered the cover with gobs of tape - it was a horrible mess. But it contained writing from my grandfather who I never met (he died when my dad was eight). The team said it could be repaired and worked hard to take off all the tape and repair the original cover to like new condition. It is simply beautiful now. Sarah told me to save the cover for you will be holding the same cover that your grandfather held almost 100 years ago!. I highly recommend them - they care! It is a special treasure that is also now completely usable. THANK YOU!”
“This place is amazing! You can easily spend hours browsing. We left with a few DVDs, VHS tapes, and PS2 games, but there was so much more to explore that we didn’t even get through everything.”
