Two bookstores with a more University bent to the 13th Ave walk-up, (lots of specialized art, science, Lit, etc.) and more of a generalist feel to the Willamette two-story with a big kids section as well as well organized by subject & author. Some subjects are sorted into subsections, but some subjects, such as sociology and psychology lack granular subdivision and are found in large, 5-6 shelves high & 15 feet long sections, tho still author-sorted. These are a bit large to productively shelf-surf without some set of authors of interest to look up. Hours and days might be allotted to the dedicated bibliophile in the stacks of Smith's Family Bookstores. Alas, parking can be a negative with only small dedicated parking lots and the unlucky left to the vagaries of the Metermaid. For any specific work that is not found, they will call the other store to see if it's in stock there. So, these are absolute gems of a pre-Amazon era with a mix of used and new, not to be missed if visiting Eugene.
