Shop for books, music and more in a warm, relaxing and customer-friendly environment.. In Short
Originating in Ann Arbor, Mich., in 1971, this international bookstore chain is known for its vast selection of books, movies and music, as well as a comfortable atmosphere. Cozy chairs, scattered tables and music listening stations invite customers to explore and stay awhile. Book and music selections are tailored to the community, giving the shop a local feel. The knowledgeable staff and Title Sleuth inventory computer stations aid inquisitive shoppers.

Search inventory online before you go; Great customer service; Coffee shop; Gift ideas. I love this Borders primarily due to the proximity to my home; however, some other traits of this store that keep me coming back are the coffee shop, the 3-for-2 tables (buy three books for the price of two [least expensive is free]), knowledgeable staff and gift ideas. I think you'd be surprised at how much of your holiday shopping can be knocked out in a book store. I love the fact that I can search their inventory online at home before making the trip to the store. Some of the employees who work in this store make the visit well worth it. Case in point: I recently wanted a particular Stephen King book that was missing from my collection, and this particular Borders didn't have it at the time. The lady offered to call other area Borders locations for me - she got it on the first try. The other Borders location pulled King's book aside, put my name on it and held it up front until I arrived. What service!
