I have started a bookstore in the back of D. Lawless Hardware at 1707 East Main Street in Olney, IL. Olney had several bookstores that I remember fondly from my childhood. Now that all of them have come and gone, I hope to contribute to the memories of the next generation in the same way.
You can park in the big lot and enter through the smaller door.
Right now I have only a few thousand books, but I am expanding that very quickly.
I have hardback and paperback fiction book sections of decent size. I have a large cookbook section, decent garden section, expanding sci fi section.
Popular political books, biography, poetry, history.
I have a big collection of old and antique books and they will be throughout the store and also adding more and more to that over time.

PS - I don't have a book exchange system set up yet but plan to. I will buy used books (for cheap because I sell cheap) and/or I can offer you store credit. Store credit will definitely get you a better "per book" offer of course if you want to trade.
