"Your Hometown Bookstore"

About Us

From My Shelf is a full-service, friendly bookstore located in the heart of downtown Wellsboro. We're proud to be a service-oriented, customer-centered, independent bookstore. Our knowledgeable staff and eclectic, ever-changing inventory has garnered us praise from big city visitors and fellow small-town dwellers alike.

At any given time, we have over 12,000 books in stock in our retail store, with over 7,000 of those titles listed for convenient online sales through the Amazon Marketplace. We specialize in custom orders: if we don't have it in stock, we can get it for you! If the book you need is available through one of our wholesalers, we can usually give you 25% off the cover price, with no extra charge for shipping.

If you are looking for an out-of-print treasure, we can help. Many customers bring us their "I've been searching for these books …" lists so we can help complete collections, bring back childhood treasures, or find the perfect gift. We have been able to save collectors and college students a great deal of money by searching for the books they need at the best price we can find.

Check our website often and come by the store to learn more about our gift registry, author readings, poetry nights, book release parties, discounts & special ordering for churches or book clubs, spontaneous specials, game nights, and more.
