Confluence Books

Confluence Books Carbondale's used-book store serves the So Il area. Option to order online and pay on pickup! This old house (build 1917) is a used bookstore on the main floor.

There's a kids corner, a sun room with $3 deals, a hallway for mind/body/spiritual (psych, health, religion), lots of art, cool science. Come and browse. Here's a fun option: Check out our website before you come in. Order books and we'll hold them for you to pick up. Then come in and explore the stacks. You can also order online and have books shipped. Our used books come from donations from community members who want to see their books find new readers.
