Janette Ray - Rare and out of print books

BOOK SHOP NEWS

Following our successful St Ive's exhibition arranged with Austin Desmond Fine Art we have mounted a further exhibition: 

LATE SUMMER ART EXHIBITION

Our current  art exhibition features two young York artists, Michael Kirkman who is at the Royal College of Art and Amy Dennis who works from Edinburgh. The show opened on the 28th of August and continues for three weeks. This will span the dates for the York National Book Fair at which we will be exhibiting.

YORK NATIONAL BOOK FAIR 11th-12th September 2009

If you want tickets for the fair please contact me or visit the bookfair website at www.yorkbookfair.com where you can download a ticket. Our stand is number 76.

WHERE THE BOOKS WE SELL COME FROM AND END UP - Rescuing the discarded.

We are delighted that a collection of pamphlets and books given to York City Library by J B Morrell, a key figure in York's Civic life, but then discarded have ended up in a prestigious overseas architectural collection. Read more about this by following the link below:

This story provides a brighter side of the depressing cull of texts our local public libraries have been recently undertaking.
