Dartmouth Bookends

Dartmouth Bookends has been a cornerstone of Hanover's intellectual life since 1984, providing the kind of deep, wide-ranging selection that a world-class college town demands. The science section rivals many university bookstores, with particular depth in environmental science, ecology, and astronomy. The nature and outdoors section spans everything from Appalachian Trail guides to literary nature writing, reflecting the Upper Valley's identity as an outdoor paradise. A rare books room on the second floor houses first editions in science and exploration, attracting collectors from across New England. The reading lounge, with its views of the Green Mountains, is the perfect place to start whatever volume you've just discovered downstairs.
