October Books.
More than just a bookshop, we’re local, radical and eco-friendly!
Owned and controlled by staff, members and customers, you can find us in the heart of Portswood’s independent high street. From here, we supply local residents, schools and students with the latest releases and classics, ethical, fair trade and organic foods, green cleaning products and toiletries, and our popular range of quirky, beautiful and thought provoking greetings cards.
Browse recommendations and collections and order books here. Arrange to collect from store or get your books delivered direct to your home.
We run and host a vibrant programme of events in both the shop and our multi-purpose Community Space.
Our own events include book talks, launches and signings, as well as those showcasing local makers, sharers and our partners.
Our affordable Community Space is available to hire seven days a week, daytime and evenings. Community groups, societies, local businesses and individuals are welcome to hire the spaces for a range of purposes.
October Books have wonderful partnerships with local Southampton schools and some beyond the city boundary.
Offering discounts on book orders, free delivery, connections with local authors and much more.
