These are strange times we live in...
... but we adapt! Here's are our guidelines for safe book shopping in a COVID world:
-
Masks are required at all times when in the store
-
Stop and use the hand sanitizer at the door so you can pick up all the books you'd like
-
There currently are not any restrictions on the number of people allowed in the store at a time, but we may enforce a 30 minute time limit if necessary
-
If you're not comfortable coming into the store, you can shop online and choose curbside pick-up (free) or local delivery (free on orders $20+)
Thank you for following these guidelines and making our store a safe space to shop.
Happy browsing!

This video was created to help with our IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign. With the help of our amazing community, we raised more than $3,000 to help grow our business by expanding our inventory and purchasing furnishings for the store.
A special thank you to Nathan Lewis for the production of this amazing video. Check out more of his work HERE.
MORE THAN JUST A BOOKSTORE
Blue House Books is not just a business that wants to sell you a product. We want to explore, discuss, and interpret stories with you. By hosting a monthly book club and several community events a year, we are proving to our community that reading--or experiencing stories in a variety of other ways--can truly be a social activity.
