We have a cozy cafe/bookstore in Staten island, NY (a few blocks from the free ferry that runs between Manhattan and Staten Island). Being the largest (and only!) used book store in Staten Island gives us access to a wealth of excellent books on a wide variety of subjects. We also sell vinyl records, have a community bulletin board, feature art by local artists in monthly art exhibits, and host free events on our small stage.
Glossary
Some terminology that may be used in this description includes:
- Text Block
- Most simply the inside pages of a book. More precisely, the block of paper formed by the cut and stacked pages of a book....
- Tight
- Used to mean that the binding of a book has not been overly loosened by frequent use.
