Books on First is the premier bookstore / coffee house in the Sauk Valley, a great place for a visit, to share ideas, to seek understanding, to find enjoyment, to gain community.

Daily, long-time and soon-to-be friends come together in the heart of downtown Dixon for a latte made just right by Brenda or Larry and a delicious pastry, or other fine beverages and treats. A showcase of local artists' works share the walls with shelves holding a wide selection of books.

Monthly live entertainment usually features great performers from the area. Lovers of Classic Jazz and Blues can browse the collection of CDs available for sale.

Books on First is all about friends and community. Come on down and see us; we look forward to a great visit with you.
