Company details

  1. Book Store

Written by the company

Bookshop.org is an online bookshop with a mission to financially support local, independent bookshops. We believe that bookshops are essential to a healthy culture. They are where authors can connect with readers, where we discover new writers, where children get hooked on the thrill of reading that can last a lifetime. They are also anchors for our communities -- owned, staffed, run and full of real people who have a genuine love of books and reading. As more and more people buy their books online, we wanted to create an easy, convenient way for you to get your books and support independent bookshops at the same time. If you want to support a specific bookshop, select them from our map and they’ll receive 30% of the cover price (or almost all of the profit) on your orders for a year. Otherwise, 10% of the cover price of your order will contribute to an earnings pool that will be evenly distributed among participating independent bookshops each month. By design, we give away the vast majority of our profit to bookshops, publications, authors and the many others who make up the thriving, inspirational culture around books and reading.

I LOVED this experience

I LOVED this experience. It was a great way to order a book AND support small bookstores. I will definitely use this again (and again)!

This place is a scam

This place is a scam. First they send email that the book I ordered was on its way…that book was not the book I ordered, then when I did receive they had sent a book I would never have brought. Impossible to get hold of them.
Would obviously never do business with this scam shop again.

The newly released author’s…

You had the newly released author’s paperback edition that I could not find in stock at my usual shopping center or online bookstores, and delivery was quick.

I shall add you to the top of my list of online stores for future books I’ll be shopping for.

Thank you!
