Great independent employee-owned bookstore with a café and many free author events. VERY knowledgeable staff.

PSB Cambridge Edition is one of my favorite local bookstores. They have an excellent book selection, they'll order any books they don't have in stock (for pick up or shipping), their website has a wish list feature, they have artisan cards, fun tchotchkes, literary games, literary accessories, AND the book sellers are helpful and lovely! They host great events (in person & virtual) too. There is even an in store café that sells hot/cold/[un]caffeinated/chocolate beverages! They continue to take Covid seriously and take reasonable precautions. Support this bookstore! ❤️📚❤️🥳

Great bookshop with an excellent selection of titles. The fiction section is excellent. I wanted two slightly obscure titles and they had both! There is a good selection of gifts for book lovers too as well as tote bags and letter writing tools. The store is way to navigate. You can also get coffee here. The staff are friendly and helpful. Easy to access by car, on foot or via the Porter Square T stop.

The bookstore has a large children's section, and the employees are good at recommending texts.

What is the lowest age this store hires at?

Best to call the store - ask if they're hiring, and if so, what the age requirements are. You can save yourself a lot of time speculating just by making a phone call.
