Welcome to The Book Stall at Chestnut Court secure on-line ordering system and event calendar.
Our event calendar is updated, and we're looking forward to seeing you for some of these fabulous author events. Our FULL web site and Roberta's newsletter are at www.thebookstall.com.
Be sure to click on "Subscribe to Mailing List" over on the left so you don't miss any news from The Book Stall.
We are going to experiment again with a bi-monthly newsletter – still emphasizing our author events, our book reviews and special features, our children’s book recommendations, and my letter to you, our customers and friends.
We are also going to reduce our mailing list from almost 10,000 names to those who are members of our Number Ten Club, teachers, and our publishing contacts. We are concerned that there will be some of you who are really good customers whose membership in our Number Ten Club will have lapsed. For those who are not Club members at this time and wish to receive a hard copy of our newsletter, we offer you a club membership at $15. This new system will go into effect on May 1st – our next mailing. If you do not receive the May newsletter, please call us or e-mail us at books@thebookstall.com. Joining the Number Ten Club qualifies you to receive 10% off all purchases for a year from the date you join. A great savings – and the newsletter!
You can also place an order right here, 24 hours a day, by searching for an author or title in the white Search box above, or browse our full online inventory.
We have converted our web site to a full-service tool for your pleasure at www.thebookstall.com. Please click to return to our site.
Our Winter hours are:
Monday - Friday 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturday 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Sunday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
