Borders is the place 'Tay' be in Dundee!

Borders Dundee is the place to be! Come and shop in our historic building and take advantage of free parking and late night opening every night. Our staff are available to help you find anything you're looking for, or to order it if we don't have it in stock.

Our store is a converted engineering works - making us one of the only book shops in the world to have a crane up near the roof. Check out the book 'Integrity' which details the history of our building in all it's incarnations. We also have:

Books, DVDs, CDs, Toys and Games: We have more books in store than anyone else for miles around, on two floors.

Other Stuff: We also offer a range of other services including Electronic Gift Cards and Book Tokens for those who would rather make up their own minds, a special order service, Business and Academic Accounts, and gift wrapping. We host all manner of events in store, from Kids storytimes, through debates and author signings to our infamous knitting group. Check the Events link above for details on what's coming up.

Iliad Book Edition - RRP £399
We are proud to announce that we are the first retailers in the UK to sell the must have gadget of the year, the bookworld's Ipod moment - The Iliad. It is the biggest change in the history of bookselling and bookmaking since the printing press was invented. The Iliad will totally transform the way you read your books.

The iLiad lets you enjoy digital books as never before. The large paper-like display offers an amazing reading quality with plenty of storage so you can carry everything in your collection everywhere you go. In addition to reading digital books, it is also possible to read your own digital documents (PDF or text formats) and make handwritten notes and annotations with the stylus.

Viewing text on the iLiad’s screen is just like reading text on paper. Unlike the display of a laptop screen, which is backlit and can strain your eyes, viewing the pages on the iLiad is as comfortable as on a real book due to the stable image which does not need to be constantly refreshed, the large viewing angle, and the fact that it uses reflected ambient light. It has a similar contrast ratio to that of a newspaper and is lightweight and durable.

Key Product Features

Size:The iLiad is very portable - comparable in size to an A5 sheet of paper.

Screen: Thanks to the high contrast, high resolution display of the iLiad you will no longer experience eyestrain when reading- and with a near 180° viewing angle reflecting screens are something of the past. The touchscreen display and innovative software allow the user to navigate through their library, open a book, turn pages, zoom in and out and make handwritten notes.

Memory: The e-book edition has 128 MB of free memory and is easily expandable to 8 GB by adding a CF type II card, MMC Multimedia Cards or USB stick. The iLiad lets you carry everything in your collection- up to 10,000 e-books.

50 Free E-books: The iLiad comes with 50 pre-loaded classic titles to get your collection started.
