Cupboard Maker Books does not buy used books! We do however trade for store credit. We ask that you bring no more than two books or bags of books per day. We send what we can't take back with you. You are then given a slip that you can use on up to half of your used book purchase.
Please note that Cupboard Maker Books may refuse any trades for any reason
The cats are living beings who do their own thing all day everyday. We can never guarantee that you will see any cats. You may see the cats up on the cat walk, running around on the floor, or even in employee only areas. We ask that if they are in restricted areas that you respect their space and let them be. They may not be out immediately in the morning, and do go to bed before the store closes. Please let the cats come to you, they love to be pet but seeing so many people everyday can become overwhelming for them.
The weekly sales at Cupboard Maker Books run Monday to Friday. They are only good on used books. Sale notifications are on signs in the store and are sent via our weekly email. Sales will not be honored on Weekends, with the exception of our Christmas in July sale, and our Anniversary sale, which are held for the entire month.
We do not have a traditional loyalty program. However we have 10% off bags that are sold for $25 and give you 10% off of everything in the store (including new books) as long as you bring the bag in with you. If you have a 10% but do not have it with you, we are unable to give the discount. We also sell a book-a-week coupon for $99. It can not be redeemed on new books, but can be redeemed on 1 used book per week with a value up to $12. It is good for one used book per week and can not be used on a previous week. Once a week has passed, it is gone. You can buy this coupon at any point in the year, and it can start whichever week you want it to start. In-store/In-stock Only
Nash, Odin, Annika, and Princess Buttercup, Princess Kona, and Bizzy are permanent residents of Cupboard Maker Books! They almost always have an adoptable friend who is looking for their forever home. You can normally find the adoptable cats in the cage near our recommendation shelves. We have helped over 300 cats find their forever homes!Check out Loving Care Cat Rescues website below

The cats are living beings and are permitted in any part of the store at any time. We ask that you allow the cats to come to you, they love people (except Annika) but after a long day at work, they are sometimes overwhelmed. You are never guaranteed to see any cats. You may see them up on the catwalks, running around on the floor, or in employee only areas. If the cats are in restricted areas, we ask that you respect their space and leave them be.
We love our community and try and help out whenever we are able! Due to the high volume of requests we have been receiving, we now ask that everyone fill out our donation request form (linked below). At this time we are only able to give donations to organizations that align with the stores mission. If you do not receive a response to your request, we wish you the best but will be unable to donate at this time.
One of the following criteria needs to be met to be exempt from the class: the author is published by one of the top five New York publishers or the author is a regular member of a Cupboard Maker Books book club.
We strongly recommend that authors attend the class even if they are exempt as it is a great way to learn from both our staff as well as the other authors attending.
If you used generative AI in the creation of your book, including the writing of the book or creation of illustrations and/or the cover, we will not stock your books or host you for a signing. We support books created by humans and love to lift up the creativity and skills of human made art and writing.
In the future, if you publish a book without using generative AI, we would be happy to discuss seeing you be a part of the Cupboard Maker Books community.
If you are dishonest about your usage of generative AI, even if you publish a book without using it, you will not be welcome to future signing events.
