Who We Are
Boswell's Books is a small independent bookstore offering new and used
books, music, gifts, magazines, puzzles, games and cards, as well as movie and book-on-tape
rentals. We special order books regularly and easily,
and under most circumstances there is no extra charge for this
service. We are a general bookstore with a wide range
of
continually-growing categories, including a section dealing with local
authors.
Where We Are
 |
Boswell's Books is located in the heart of Shelburne
Falls, Massachusetts, about 10 miles west of Greenfield (take Exit
26 from Interstate 91). From Greenfield, take Route 2 West (The Mohawk
Trail) until you see the signs for Shelburne Falls and Route 2A. |
When We're Open
Generally, our regular hours are:
Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and
Saturday: 11-6
Thursday: 11-7
Sunday: 12-4
Monday: Closed
Between Thanksgiving and Christmas and between Memorial Day and Labor
Day, we are open Mondays and extend Sundays, being open both days
11-6. Sometimes we come in early or stay open late for special
reasons, like the 3rd Friday Gallery Walk in Shelburne Falls -- feel
free to call and see if we're open outside the stated hours.
Ordering Information
Most special orders can be obtained from Ingram Book Company, our
regular book distributor. We simply add your book to the weekly
order. You pay nothing for shipping and nothing for special
ordering the book. We put the orders in on Sunday nights, and
books come Tuesdays and Wednesdays. We will call you as soon as
your book comes in. This process accounts for virtually all the
special orders we do. We can also special order books from
publishers and authors, and do out-of-print and used book searches;
there is a charge for these services, on a case-by-case basis.
Orders from our local customers (for books which will be picked up
at
the store) may be made over the telephone or via e-mail.
Mailorder customers can
order books by telephone, letter or via e-mail.
All mailorder requests should include your name, address and daytime
telephone
number, and as much information as you have about the book you'd like
to
order. Shipping charges are $3.00 for the first book and $.50 for each
additional book.
