The LAST BOW FOR BUSCO BOOKS?

The world of commerce is a rapidly changing place thanks to the internet and the growth of online selling. Every business has had to adapt and Busco Books has been no different since trading as tarkabooks.com in 1998.

Some adaptations are more severe than others, however, and after closing the doors on our shop in 2011 to concentrate direct sales on fairs & markets, we now have to announce a reduction even in the number of markets that we attend.

With immediate effect we can no longer attend the regular markets in Lloret, nor that in Riudarenes. Our next scheduled event is on 23rd April, for the Diada de St Jordi.

The paperless society we were promised in the 1970's with the advent of the computer is finally coming to pass. Amazon's bestselling spacesaving e-books coincide with a great wave of people disposing of their paper books and buying less. As the mass market for books dies out, only the diehard reader, gift buyer, researcher and collector continue to buy and/or read printed matter. The future of books becomes the past through the continuance of secondhand sellers, if only online. You can browse our selection of rare and other secondhand books any time.
