Used book store: Not in your area...
Landmark/Crossword: Can't buy them all ?!
For kids & us: You read books other than for the children?
After the above discussions with some friends- The reader, that's me, had almost given up on finding a good library- until the book-Gods finally answered my prayers and I discovered -
Just Books.
Just Books (JB) simply put is a lending library with a vast collection of in-good condition books.
We have been members since July at the Kalyan Nagar branch and are happy to finally find our favorite books & magazines at an easy reach.
Pluses:
- Lots of branches- located in almost all prime areas
- Many choice of plans- for both books & magazines
- Various languages and genre of books
- Offer door delivery (for certain plans)
- A reading room/space
- Children 's activities / workshops
- Online catalog to browse & choose books for your queue/ cart
- Monthly e-Newsletters on latest books/authors et al
- Material could be borrowed/ dropped off at any of the JB locations
- If a book is unavailable at your JB, it'd be brought from another JB for you
- The door delivery is prompt- order in the 'noon, delivery in the evening
- The Online catalog ordering still needs work
- The staff's catalog and the patron's does not match
- Staff is not familiar with regional language books
- Latest copies of magazines are not easily available
And, did I remind about the "Just Refer" referral program ? *hint*
