Mindfair

Mindfair is Oberlin's used book store. They tend to stock a wide mix of books including academic and non-academic non-fiction, children's books, literature, foreign language books, some textbooks, and just about whatever else comes their way. Locally owned by real people, mindfair is a pretty good place to buy from. They are colocated with Ben Franklin.

Mindfair is also the home of Mindfair Upstairs, which is trying to establish itself as a sort of coffeeshop hangout for Oberlin. Some students and residents will remember the now defunct Oberlin Music as the previous attempt at establishing a non-college-owned coffee and snack serving hang-out/store. Hopefully Mindfair Upstairs will meet a better fate.
