Books on the Common, originally founded in 1984 by Bob and Sally Silbernagel in Ridgefield, CT, has been a beloved fixture in the community for decades. Despite facing challenges from large chain stores and online retailers, the independent bookstore has thrived thanks to its outstanding customer service, personalized book recommendations, and welcoming atmosphere.
After evolving from a small 450 sq. ft. space to a spacious location on Main Street, the store continues to cater to the literary needs of residents from Ridgefield and surrounding towns. Under the ownership of Ellen Burns and Darwin Ellis, Books on the Common remains a go-to destination for book lovers seeking genuine interactions and a curated selection of titles.
