University Village Bookstore Gears Up For Summer Season

As the Old Dominion University Village Bookstore gears up for summer, it has brought in 25 popular-fiction bestsellers in large numbers for a special offer.

When you buy two books from the list of titles - including "Brave New World," "The Bell Jar," "Their Eyes Were Watching God" and "The Alchemist," among others - you'll get a third book from the list, free.

They make great "beach reads," the bookstore says.

The store, located at the corner of Monarch Way and 45th Street, is now on its summer hours schedule: 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.

The summer hours also mean summer Story Time for children at the bookstore.

The free Story Time series will be held most Saturday mornings throughout the summer.  Story Time always begins at 10 a.m. and lasts about 45 minutes. Free parking is available at Garage D across 45th Street. 

Sometimes an activity will be included for the kids as well.

For information about Story Time, the summer hours or for any other Village Bookstore inquiries, call 683-0048.
