About Us

Welcome to Books on Main!

Books on Main is an independently owned bookshop right in the heart of historic downtown Cedar Falls at 205 Main Street, just across the street from our parent shop, The Nook. We’ve got shelves full of previously loved books looking for their next home and all kinds of fun gifts for the book lovers in your life. We sell used books, we buy used books, and we’re all about keeping great stories going. Our mission is to get books into the hands of readers and spread the love of reading throughout the Cedar Valley.
