About Ace Online Books – Books & Knowledge in Kollam
Ace Online Books is in Vandana Tower, on the floor above the SBI branch in Karunagappally. It’s a convenient location since almost everyone knows where the bank is. Even though we have online in our name, we have this physical base where we manage all the orders and keep our inventory. The rooms are filled with stacks of books in every corner. We spend most of our time packing boxes and checking lists to make sure the right titles go to the right people. It’s a quiet kind of work, very different from the busy street outside. Sometimes the lift in Vandana Tower acts up, so we end up carrying boxes up and down the stairs, which is a good workout I suppose. Karunagappally is a nice place to be based. We don’t have a fancy storefront for browsing, it’s mostly just a workspace for us to handle the shipping. You can smell the paper and ink as soon as you walk in. We started this because we like books and saw a way to get them to people more easily. It’s just a few of us here making sure the orders go out on time. We don't use any slick sales pitches. We just list what we have and send it out when someone buys it. It's a simple operation really. We don't mind the long hours of sorting through pages and titles because it's what we enjoy. The view from the window shows the bustling town below while we stay busy inside. It's our own little world of books up here. Some days the stacks get so high we can't see over them.
