Are you a book lover? Do you enjoy browsing through shelves of books and magazines, looking for hidden gems and rare finds? If so, you’re in luck! Nerman’s Books and Collectibles officially closed last weekend, but Nerman was still left with stacks upon stacks of books and magazines. To avoid throwing them away, the bookstore decided to give away the remaining 15,000 to 20,000 books and magazines to anyone who wants them. This Thursday (March 30) and Friday (March 31), people can stop by and take as many books as they want.
Nerman’s bookstore was of the largest used bookstores in the Osborne area and a staple in the community. He has amassed a collection of books and magazines, covering every genre and topic imaginable. From classics to comics, from history to horror, from romance to reference.
If you’re in the area, head down to the store at 700 Osborne Street and get your hands on some treasures while you still can! You never know what you might discover at Nerman’s Books and Collectibles. It’s a book lover’s paradise!
