About

Temple Rare Books is a division of Temple Bookbinders, which has been established for nearly twenty years. The bookshop is based within the bindery building and is open between 10am and 4pm weekdays, any other times by appointment. Any book listed on the website can be examined here, but please let us know first if you are travelling, so that we can make sure it is still available.

Not all of the books in the shop are listed on the website. We now have limited on-site parking available again.

We are members of the ABA and the PBFA and exhibit at several of their book fairs, please see our fairs / events page. We attend many auctions and are happy to execute commission bids on your behalf.

We will issue printed catalogues sporadically, if you would like to receive these, please contact us at books@templerarebooks.com A monthly email list is now sent out, please email us to join the mailing list.

We are always interested in buying books of a similar quality to those found on this website - please feel free to contact us by email
