About Us
The Montague Bookmill is a used bookstore housed in an 1842 gristmill, set on the banks of the Sawmill River, a few miles north of Amherst and Northampton, Massachusetts.
Our collection leans toward the academic, but we have thousands of books, on just about everything from Austen and anarchy to Zola and zoology. Our books are generally half-price, including recent publisher’s overstocks. Don’t look for our catalogue on line; we’re not that bookstore. But if we can’t find the book you’re looking for, we’ll find you a better one you didn’t know you wanted.
WE BUY BOOKS
We buy books strictly by appointment, and we make appointments only by
phone (413-367-9206) so that we can discuss your books. We look for
books that are in good condition and we do not buy textbooks or former
library books. Books should have no underlining, highlighting or
marginal notes.
The Montague Mill is also home to Sawmill River Arts and an outpost of the Turn It Up! music and movie empire. There is great food and drink all day and deep into the night at the astonishing Lady Killigrew Cafe. The Bookmill and its environs are an amazing and lovely place where you can lose yourself for hours. We’ve been lost here for years.
