COVID-19 Update
The shop is now open for business. We still cannot receive customers inside our business because our governor has not cleared that yet, but we are back up and running. Keep in mind, if you call our business line, you may get a voice mail message, but we should be returning your call, so leave a message.
It would be best if you check out our website first and see if that will answer your questions. The navigation links at the top of this page are a good place to start.
WELCOME TO LEONARD’S BOOKS
Leonard E. Haley first opened Leonard’s Antiques & Used Furniture back in 1972 in a familiar storefront in Lafayette, Indiana. After he passed away in 1988, his son Eric continued the family business, gradually adding his favorite stock — books — and changing the name to “Leonard’s Antiques & Books.”
Leonard’s was the first antiques store in the Lafayette area to go online, in 1996. Five years later, in 2001, the landmark store was closed, and Eric moved his collection of rare, out-of-print, and quality used books and magazines to a new location in Carroll County, Indiana–right next to our house in the old Burrows fire station. The name was changed to “Leonard’s Books” to reflect our new focus on both book sales and bookbinding. Today, the vast majority of our business is book and Bible rebinding.
