If Powells had apartments, I spend all my time there. I LOVE this place. I can find a section JUST on lofts, then go down a floor and find out all about knitting on Tuesdays with my left hand. I can never spend less than an hour here and if I had my way, it would be four hours easily.
I'm happy that they finally let the customers look stuff up on the computers so the employees can do more important things.
The cafe inside helps keep me there for much longer.
You can get most, if not all, of the books online, but it's not the same as wandering around learning new things.
