Harvard Book Store is a unique and special place to shop—a locally owned, independently run Cambridge landmark since 1932. It is known for its extraordinary selection of new, used, and remainders, a popular author event series, and a history of innovation—including local bike delivery and a book-making robot (capable of printing and binding any of millions of titles in minutes). On their website, customers can browse the shelves, staff recommendations, and the author events calendar.
