Searching

The range of books stocked on the shelves at Chapter Two Books, while definitely varied and comprehensive, is limited by the physical size of our bookshop, but if we don’t have something you’re after we would love to help you find it! We provide a book searching service that can’t be beat, so please drop us a line by phone or email (if you can’t visit us in-store) and cross your fingers – your search may be almost over.

Book searches
There are millions of books out there and, rather than join the Negative Nellies who forecast the book’s ‘death by internet’ we embrace this technology to help you find what you’re looking for.
Contact Chapter Two Books by phone, email or in person and we can give you a free quote straight away. One of our helpful staff will talk you through the process and the various options that might be available (paperback/hardcover, overseas/interstate, book condition, etc). Your quote will include the price of the book, postage and our search fee (payment is required in advance).
Wants list
Not in a rush? We’re always looking out for books to put in our bookshop and spend a lot of time sourcing stock. If you would like us to keep an eye out for a specific title, let us know and if we come across it, we’ll give you a call.
There is no fee for this service, but also no guarantee that we will come across the book you’re after. If we haven’t found it after a while, a Chapter Two Books staff member will contact you to see whether you still want us to look for it or would prefer to take advantage of our book search service.
