LA Times Article on the Iliad
March 24th, 2010
There’s an excellent article in the LA Times (March 6, 2010) about the Iliad Bookshop. Written by Ann M. Simmons (who came by and soaked up the atmosphere and history of our store), the article is a welcome relief from the Times tendency to feature stories of major bookstore closings.
We’d like to thank Ann and the Times for writing such a good article and for focusing on bookstore success stories. And, of course, thanks to all of our customers for helping make Iliad the growing and successful used bookstore that it is.
And isn’t that picture of Zola on the front page of the article cool?

Twice the Iliad!
August 17th, 2009
Our new Literature/Fiction room is now open, and Iliad Bookshop is now 5,000 square feet, with newly-installed and upgraded air conditioning and more parking! We also just added two gorgeous vintage couches for your browsing comfort – just don’t be surprised if you have to share a seat with Zola!

This is what a mile of new shelving looks like!
