September Hours and Information
Our September Hours are Monday through Saturday 10-6 and Sundays from 11-4.
Please note that we will be strictly following the State of Illinois Regulations for retail establishments. This includes all customers and employees (over the age of two) wearing masks that securely fit over their nose and mouth and maintaining social distance. We will be following these rules to protect you; please help protect us by complying.
We are still offering Curbside Pickup for items in our store.
We encourage all of you to continue to utilize our curbside pickup service at this time. This allows you to shop safely from home and do a quick dash in and out to retrieve your purchases. Curbside pickup is available for both in stock items and special orders made to the store. Please wait to hear from us before you come to get your items.
Book Ordering
For book ordering, please visit our e-commerce website. Please note that this website links directly to our distributor's database. Their stock does not reflect our current on-hand inventory, but your online purchase still supports The Bookstore of Glen Ellyn! Books purchased here may be shipped or picked up using curbside pickup.
Puzzle and Activity Books
If you are looking for puzzles, activity books, or other items, please give us a call. We are happy to help!
