Welcome to Clintonville Books

Yes, you can order any book directly through us in the store, by calling us, or online through our Bookshop.org store and pick it up in the store or have it shipped to your house. The nice thing is most of the books ship from Indiana so you can get them 2-3 days. We can also track down sets, limited editions, and out of print books you're looking for. Thanks for your support.

We are buying books in our shop every day! Just bring them in. We're currently buying in the genres listed below:

• Most paperback fiction, especially contemporary fiction, literary fiction, science fiction, and fantasy
• Other subjects include poetry, art & photography, nature, esoterica & the occult, spirituality, film & media, leftist & radical politics, philosophy, gender, and vintage kids' books
• Collectible books: first or early editions, out of print copies, signed copies, other rare books and ephemera

If you have over 100 books, we can come to you. Please email grant@clintonvillebooks.com and let us know where you are based, and share an approximate book count with a general list of genres. If you can please also include images of the books’ spines. We’ll respond to you as quickly as possible, but please give us 3-5 days to process your request.

Based on our experience, we believe we pay more for books than any other shop in town:

• We offer 30-50% of the resale value in store credit or 10-25% in cash.
• Rare and sought after books may be acquired at higher percentages, depending on desirability.
• We are also open to selling select rare books on commission.

Yes, we sell physical gift cards and e-gift cards you can buy online.

Yes, we take donations and greatly appreciate them.

If you're a local author to Clintonville or Columbus, OH, we'd love to consider your book. The best way to get your book in our shop is to drop off or mail us a copy for review, including how we can order copies if we think it's a good fit. We carry many local authors are always open to carrying more!
