The Book House in Dinkytown

The Book House offers the increasingly-rare opportunity to browse a large stock of used and rare books, hang out, read, write, invite friends to meet, and talk with fellow book lovers. In addition to their store stock, their online book archive of over forty thousand books can be searched through their catalog site.

The Book House’s remodel of Historic Dinkydale’s entire second floor carved out a labyrinthine series of book rooms, a room for small gatherings, a Rare Book Room, and a front room with large windows overlooking 4th Street. A reading nook in the poetry alcove is located just below a window that overlooks Bob Dylan’s old Dinkytown apartment in what was the old Gray’s Drug building.
