Symposia Bookstore

Symposia Bookstore A not for profit used bookstore and community center in Hoboken, NJ "Symposia is more than a secondhand bookstore.

It's a community meeting place." --The Jersey Journal, March 23, 2006

"If you can't judge a book by its cover, you can't call Hoboken's Symposia a bookstore just because it sells books. In fact, it's more like a community center that provides space for all kinds of activities and a place for people to meet and mingle." --The Jersey Journal, March 2, 2006

"The store accepts donations of all kinds

, including books, money, computers and clothing. Two computers with internet access have been donated to the store. Symposia also hosts many meetings and clubs." --The Hoboken Reporter, February 8, 2004

Symposia Volunteer of the Month: Matt

“I started volunteering at Symposia last year. I’m in between jobs at the moment and I seemed to be dropping off books I finished every other week- so I decided to volunteer. I’ve lived in Hoboken for 9 years and it’s very rewarding to give back to the community. I recommend everyone do it if they have the time!
I’m a voracious reader, too- mostly horror/science fiction (I helped sort out Symposia’s new horror/sci-fi vertical!) and biographies of my favorite bands. It’s fun helping people find their next read and seeing books I donated fly off the shelf.
See you around the stacks! A friend”
