Academic Book Heaven by N. R. at InsiderPages
Saturday, November 12, 2005
The first thing anyone who moves into the area should do is buy shares in the Seminary Co-op, which gets you a 10% discount on everything. In the maze of passages can be found pretty much any scholarly book of interest, as well as course books for the U of C. The staff are friendly and helpful, and can order anything for you as well. The bookstore publishes a catalog with great commentary on new and forthcoming books, as well. It may be both hot and crowded much of the time, but this is one of the greatest bookstores anyone will ever go into, for academic books.
