Scottish Bookshop Directory
As part of the new Scottish Wanderlust Book Forum, I put together a directory of Scotland's independent bookshops.
I started working on a directory of Scottish bookshops a number of years ago, and then it sat. For years. But I finally got my butt in gear and finished it. It was really sad to see how many shops had permanently closed their doors since I had started this project.
As my little act of protest against the breakneck speed of Amazon’s world domination, I would like to help shine a light on independent bookshops, and Scotland seemed the natural place for me to do that.
I have divided the directory into 6 geographical regions:
Here are a few samples of the design:
And a few more:
This is by no means comprehensive, I’m still adding new ones, and if you have any recommendations of places I didn’t include please do let me know! If you are the owner of a shop and would like to provide any updates or changes I’ll get right on that too.

I’m also working on the Scottish Wanderlust Book Forum, feel free to have a look around there as well - I could use some help getting the discussions rolling before I launch it officially :)
