- Established in 1985. Alexandria II is named after the ancient library of Alexandria in Egypt, which served as a learning center for over 600 years. We hope to honor its tradition by creating a place for people of all beliefs to learn and exchange ideas. Alexandria II first opened its doors in Pasadena on October 19th 1985. The original store was located on Colorado Blvd. near Rosemead Blvd. In August of 1988 the store was relocated to South Lake Avenue, near California Blvd. and remained in that location for 21 years. In July 2009 the store moved a few blocks north to its current location at 170 S Lake Avenue.

This hidden beauty is one of my favorite places/shops of all time. Compared to Bodhi Tree, this place is a bit smaller but the parking here is so much better. The staff always go above and beyond when it comes to helping you. Most places will just tell you whether they have a title or not. These people tell you that and take you to where you can find it. Then, tell you of other comparable titles that you may wanna check out. A lot of times, their choices are better. And that is due to the fact, the people that work there know the many subjects/topics in the store. And, it has never failed...if they do not have a title, they will order the book for you and call you once it arrives. The staff remembers your name and welcome you every time you walk into the store. My favorite areas are the conspiracy and natural health. Oh my....what a large selection of books for those two subjects alone. Almost forgot, they have a pretty good DVD selection and have some good rentals, also. *Join their book club and recieve a nice discount after making a couple purchases.
