Very well stocked shelves. Lots of new titles to choose from. Love they no longer have a limit on how many books can be purchased. I only come a few times a year so if I find a lot of potential books. I know I can buy them all. Great selection of puzzles and movies as well.

Super nice little bookstore right outside the library. Not only is it a great way to support the local library and staffed with friendly volunteers but I've actually found some gems in it. Prices are dirt cheap ($.25 for a mass market paperback to ~$3.00 for a standard hardcover) and the selection turns over quickly so visits are always unique I make it a point to stop by for cheap books whenever I'm in Camarillo!

Awesome small used-books store. Most of their books are $3 or less, and they have some CDs and videos. Their profits go to support the attached city library, which is pretty cool as well

It was my first time to visit the Camarillo Library. I was a little disappointed when I made and offer on 7 books and they said that they could only offer a 10 percent off discount. In addition, on this day. I also had purchased $38 of other books that same day so I would have made a purchase of over $100 dollars and the woman turned me down. The are not cheap here. They are priced at $2 dollars for paperback and $3 for hardbacks. This is very misleading because the books I was interested in the fee on the inside page was $9 dollars they were paperbacks. So If you go to this friends of the library location be aware they check their books against Amazon's price and really don't leave any meat on the bone for any book dealers to make a profit. I usually love to shop at the friends of the library locations in other cities like Simi Valley, and leave please with my purchase. At this location not so much.

I was there earlier this week and I believe they had some HP books there. You would have to ask the helpers! The stock varies with what is brought in!

We have a whole section of large print books on two shelves near the front counter, padded stools for resting, and friendly volunteers ready to help seniors. Many of our volunteers are seniors themselves.
