Skoob Books is a bookshop selling secondhand books focusing on academic subjects, located in the Brunswick Centre, in Bloomsbury, central London, UK. [1] [2]
Skoob Books has over 70,000 titles within their two shops and around 100,000 online. [3] The shops are based in a basement of the Brunswick Centre and in a retail space on its ground floor. It has secondhand [4] works on politics, history, literature, art, philosophy, to the natural sciences. [5] [6]
Included within this are also postcards and photographs. [7] [8]
The main shop itself is underground, sprawling out into distinct sections from sci-fi, social sciences, arts, and natural sciences. [9]
Its warehouse is based in Oxfordshire where it holds over a million books. [10]
Skoob Books originally (1979) started in Sicilian Arcade while Pooles Books was closing down, by staff from the Tottenham Court Road shop. Later they moved to a ground floor unit at the Brunswick Centre. Subsequently the shop moved to the basement of the centre in 2008.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Skoob Books opened their ground floor retail unit once more as a pop-up shop. [11]
In 2010 the Times Out magazine voted Skoob Books "the best bookshop in London".
