Tyndale House to open Carol Stream store, hold warehouse sale

Tyndale House Publishers, the largest independent Christian publisher in the United States, has called the Western suburbs home for more than 50 years.

Now, for the first time, Tyndale is opening its doors to the public with the grand opening of an on-site bookstore at its corporate headquarters in Carol Stream, as well as its inaugural warehouse sale, which will take place Thursday through Saturday, Sept. 28 to 30.

"In recent months, our employees have participated in innovation discussions, and we are enthusiastically pursuing several initiatives," said Doug Walton, vice president of administrative services.

"The idea for an annual warehouse sale came out of these conversations. We also have a lobby that can serve as a place to profile our new products and best-sellers - and we thought a Tyndale bookstore would be a great way to serve our community and further our mission. It will feature more than 400 Tyndale books and Bibles, as well as a card section. We hope it becomes a destination for individuals and churches to see our new products, as well as a place that will minister to their spiritual needs."

Tyndale's bookstore will be located in the lobby of its corporate office at 351 Executive Drive in Carol Stream. The store will feature new releases and best-sellers, while all books will be discounted 20 percent. Store hours will be 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays.

Tyndale's inaugural warehouse sale will feature discounts of up to 70 percent and will include overstock and scratch-and-dent titles, as well as outreach and giveaway Bibles. Warehouse sale days will be 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Sept. 28 and 29, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 30.
