Oneonta, New York is home to Hartwick College, SUNY Oneonta, and the Oneonta Outlaws baseball team of the New York Collegiate Baseball League. A community infused with intelligent and passionate individuals, we take great pride in our city where culture abounds in its numerous art, music, and theater organizations.

The Green Toad Bookstore!  Where the staff is knowledgeable and crazy about books! A place where all the books are hand-picked by folks who love what they do. We encourage people to come while away their day exploring a vast collection of fabulous titles and leave refreshed and enlightened. Not to mention that, books are just one of the many items that we offer. We have greeting cards, handbags, candles, games, puzzles, jewelry, and other gift-giving (or gift-receiving) items. You'll just have to come see all the wonderful things we offer.

The Green Toad Bookstore and Oneonta make a wonderful duo. They are where the love of the northeast and its beautiful seasons combine with a passion for literacy and appreciation of the arts. They are where interesting and dynamic people come together to share their stories, as well as their coffee.

We hope that you enjoy this website and we look forward to seeing you in the store. We plan to exceed your expectations, so get ready for us to discuss books with you, recommend our favorites, or just chat with you about whatever is on your mind.
