Title Wave Used Bookstore
I recently covered the wonders of the library, but if you are still craving personal book ownership you should head to the second best option, the library’s used book outlet. Title Wave Used Bookstore is the last stop before the recycle bin for books in Multnomah County’s library collection. Run solely by volunteers, Title Wave is a great place to pick up a novel, travel guide or coffee table book for a steal (books are usually $2 and up).
My last visit there I found a nearly new hardback edition of The City of Fallen Angels and several 2005 guidebooks to go with me on a trip to Hawaii. You can also find DVDs, videos, magazines, art books and a whole section of children’s reads. While you’re purusing the good deals, take a moment to also marvel in the building, a fine example of the Spanish Renaissance Revival style. Finally, keep an eye out for the 1/2 off sales to experience the joys of book ownership, without the guilt.
