Adelaide Booksellers is a secondhand bookstore found in the little alleyway Twin Street, just off of Rundle Mall. Established in 1979, Adelaide Booksellers is a ‘bricks and clicks’ store that boasts an excellent range of products, matched with great service in both their physical and online stores.

Adelaide Booksellers has recently moved from a second story store next to the Myer Centre to the other end of the mall, in a basement level store underneath Dymocks Booksellers. It is a great store with a dedicated and loyal customer base.

Adelaide Booksellers specialise in books on Australia and art, as well as books by Australian authors. They have whole cabinets dedicated to first editions and beautifully bound books. They also have a number of signed books from Australian authors. There are some truly rare delights in store that have to be seen to be believed- first edition copy of Mary Poppins any one?

With a lot of people turning to online options when it comes to buying books, Adelaide Booksellers provide both the easiness of online sales as well as the pleasure of browsing in a physical store. For some, there is no replacing the feeling of exploring the nooks and crannies of a bookstore or picking up a physical book. If you’re one of these people, the rows of shelves in Adelaide Booksellers are waiting to be explored.
