Within a 20-minute drive of Ithaca you can also find two barn-sized used-book sellers:
- The Phoenix Books, 1608 Dryden Rd. [Rt. 13], going north toward Dryden
- Book Barn of the Finger Lakes, 198 North Rd. just off Rt. 13 in Dryden, across from the Tompkins-Cortland Community College entrance.
Also, two "big-box" bookstores can now be found in Ithaca:
- Borders, Pyramid Mall (Triphammer Rd exit off Rt. 13 N)
- Barnes & Noble, Route 13 S (next to Tops supermarket)
If you'll be in Ithaca in May or October, look into the dates of the huge Friends of the Library www.booksale.org book sale, which lasts a week or two for each sale period and offers over 250,000 items for sale, with proceeds supporting the fancy, new (but cash-strapped) county library on the corner of Green and Cayuga Streets.
