Copperfield's Books Reopens in Bel Aire Plaza

Napa's only bookstore was briefly closed this week as Copperfield's completed its move across the Bel Aire Plaza parking lot to its new spot next door to Whole Foods Market.

Friday was the long-awaited day for Copperfield's Books to reopen in its new Bel Aire Plaza location, freeing up the cavernous former bookstore for its next incarnation as a Pier One Imports. Copperfield's had closed earlier in the week to complete the move.

Now located next door to Whole Foods, Copperfield's faces west instead of south, but in other ways remains the same establishment Napa book and magazine buyers have known for years, with new releases, classics and deeply discounted stock alongside greeting cards and gifts.

Along with its well-established tradition of in-store author events, Copperfields is also partnering with its new neighbor and other Napa Valley food businesses in a series of cooking demonstrations/book signings by notable cookbook authors. 

The next "Copperfields Cooks" event takes place at Bouchon Bakery in Yountville, where chef Thomas Keller promotes his new Bouchon Bakery cookbook Nov. 14 at 6:30 p.m.; more information at http://www.copperfieldsbooks.com/copperfields-cooks

At the Napa store, a panel of Napa Valley children's authors will discuss the subject Learn to Write Books for Kids! Sunday at 2 p.m.

Copperfield's is open Monday-Saturday: 10am-9pm and Sunday: 10am-7pm; (707) 252-8002.

Hi myhero: Are you getting some kind of messages about "Breaking News" being dead? JustRead More wondering...
Keri Brenner (Editor) May 25, 2013 at 10:03 am
Breaking news still alive...stay tuned!
myhero May 25, 2013 at 06:53 am
Keri is "Breaking News" dead ? Or just wounded ...

A total grassroots generated upheaval will fix it, nothing less. " Hand to mouth"Read More financial conditions and the confiscation of our children's future foreclose on just about anything working shy of a bleaching of our system as we know it. HRM
MICHAEL WILSON May 22, 2013 at 03:30 pm
Not so much that the Government is broken That is as it is. The question is how do we fix it?
Jarvis William Peay May 22, 2013 at 03:08 pm
You know Haley, it is our nature, we guess to post comments when we disagree with someone. Yet IRead More have to give you a secular AMEN for your 2:54pm statement. We would think that anyone over the age of say, twenty, would already know that, but progress is being made.The strategy of tension rules the process now, by design. HRM

Keri, I'm not frustrated that I don't have a profile pic, I'm frustrated that I'm not able to do itRead More myself. I can wait until it works properly so I can find one that fits the itty-bitty round format.
Gary Thompson May 20, 2013 at 03:58 pm
I think with any new technology whether it be an upgrade or new platform, there are always going toRead More be bugs. it's just the nature of technology. I personally like this new layout and understand that there will be bugs to fix. Looking good Napa Valley Patch!!

Hi Steve: Sorry about this. I'm as frustrated as you are. Could you email me your profile photo andRead More I will just ask the tech people to upload it for you? Please send to keri.brenner@patch.com. Thanks,

Michael - I do get the printed paper. I just refuse to pay for a double subscription online. I didRead More find ways around that, though.

Thanks Keri.

This should be removed. He was located in the Northwest and contacted his family.
MICHAEL WILSON May 20, 2013 at 08:40 am
Ya Wendy I do hope he returns. I am not sure why the police are calling him a runaway
Wendy Garcia May 20, 2013 at 05:17 am
He is NOT a runaway. This kid is MISSING and his family needs police assistance to find him.
Unfiltered Steve Simoneau May 19, 2013 at 09:22 am
Keri, I have heard from the tech people, and my instructions were to clear cache, erase cookies,Read More reboot, etc. All things having to do with my computer, not with the website. I get the same issues on two different computers at different homes as well as my iPad that is logged on anywhere. Pretty sure it is not on my end. There are far too many things that are a step down from previous site. Examples: Can't seperate paragraphs in comments, no "reply" option on comments makes it difficult to know who is responding to whom, itty-bitty profile avatars smaller than a pea, green on everything makes features less distinguishable, on and on.

Hi USS and MW The tech people are making fixes every day. If you can give me specific bugs, withRead More links, please do so so that I can let them know. Thanks for your patience....

I believe it's going to be discussed at the Napa County Supervisors meeting on Tuesday, May 21, 9Read More a.m. Hope to get some info. then. Thanks.

To me It looks like a Lock. KR has done a great job getting it going He still has a long road to goRead More on the project. I will be glad to see work start.
MICHAEL WILSON May 17, 2013 at 10:34 am
Yes I think so I had to add a whole new profile
Loui Loui May 17, 2013 at 10:02 am
Do we have to reupload it?
MICHAEL WILSON May 24, 2013 at 09:54 am
Karen I agree I do not think the Bugs are all out yet.
Karen Garcia May 24, 2013 at 06:27 am
I normally don't complain about change at websites I visit frequently-- I usually find it prettyRead More easy to adapt. But this new Patch format is really confusing and not nearly as interesting and enticing as the original one.

People hate change, that's why it's empty.
