25.01.2022 Congratulations Dr Karl! This is a great time to let you know that Dr Karl will be at The Bookery in person on Friday 13th December to say hello to everyone and sign copies of his brand new book- a great Christmas present for all your budding scientists! More details to follow!

25.01.2022 The Bookery has finally entered the 21st Century and we have a bouncing baby website! It needs a lot more content, which well work on, but, for now, the most important thing on there is the new independent booksellers catalogue - full of literary deliciousness Go to www.burnsbaybookery.com.au

24.01.2022 This half of the Bookery Team is currently on a fact finding mission in Italy.... someones got to do the hard yards.... Anyway - look what I found in a super gorgeous boutique in Acqui Termi! Oh Lane Cove..... youre officially cool Just in case you havent seen them - theyre waiting for you in the Bookery!

21.01.2022 Just leaving this here........

19.01.2022 So - weve been running the takeaway shop, for three days this week - and it seems to be a thing thats been working for all of us - thank you to our takeaway customers - yes, its weird, but its also kind of fun! Weve been working hard reactivating all of our paused accounts so that we can finally get some new books flowing into the shop - including Malcolm Turnbulls autobiography, which should land next week( we already have quite a few pre-orders - add your name to the ...list if you like). This is the plan for the next 2 weeks: The Bookery Takeaway will be open from 10am till about 4pm on TUESDAYS, WEDNESDAYS AND THURSDAYS - Were not going to be open at the weekend just yet. Just for this week we are also open on Friday....... Were happy to home deliver to the local area and will take any special orders you need - not sure about the overseas suppliers yet, our US wholesaler is in a world of pain, as you can imagine. We have orders in for plenty of games and will get new jigsaws as soon as the suppliers restock - (did you read the post about the jigsaw swap in the meantime?) Heres a cartoon to brighten your day Love Karen and Beatle xxxx

12.01.2022 In these uncertain times - The Bookery has decided that, at least for the moment, we will be operating as normal. In the shop we might seem to be keeping our distance from you just a little bit - we dont mean to be rude - were trying to do our bit to keep this curve as flat as we can! Keep on supporting our small businesses, Lane Cove - and thanks for listening!! Edit..... we have decided that, if it helps anyone self isolating at home, we will be more than happy to r...un a local home delivery system!! Email your wish list to [email protected] Call the shop on 9427 4218 Even if you dont have a wish list - well be happy to put together a selection for you and the kids.

If youd like us to put together a package of books and fun stuff, or you have a particular request, get in touch with us via Facebook - we still have our mobiles! Well deliver them to your door today x

08.01.2022 Taste test of brand new Christmas chocolates about to commence........

07.01.2022 Well - its time to call it.... We have decided to go into TEMPORARY hibernation from Monday 30th March. We feel it incongruous that we are being told that it...s vital to stay at home.... but are still asking our staff to come in to work. We feel that its the right decision to be one less place where people can linger and perhaps put themselves, and us, at risk. We know youll understand. Were still going to be open for the rest of today, and Sunday. If we dont see you this weekend - be safe, stay at home, and well see you on the other side See more

05.01.2022 You know that feeling when you find out that someone you werent expecting is suddenly coming for Christmas Day - or its come as a huge surprise that Christmas is on WEDNESDAY ......because nobody told you and its not your fault and you cant bear the thought of Chatswood and parking and shopping centres selling the same old stuff....but you have to get SOMETHING.... and Christmas is on WEDNESDAY ...... The Bookery is here to soothe your soul, calm your hysteria and solve your present problems Were open till the last customer leaves on Christmas Eve..... weve got you!!

02.01.2022 Hello Bookery people! So, its been a couple of weeks since we touched base.... Weve all been doing our best to stay away, and stay safe and keep this monster at bay. Its been harder for some of us then for others- my house has never been cleaner - and I even ironed today...things are dire, clearly.... We miss you. We miss saying hello, we miss the laughs and the conversation and the day to day touching base with you, all of you who make our job the best job in the world. ... Weve been trying to think of ways we can keep doing what were doing, while were doing this... Its hard. We dont want you to come into the shop, put you at risk from us, from others - make our lovely safe place, where we come to grab a piece of peace, another place where we arent sure were doing the right thing by being there at all... Beatle and I are going to be in the shop for a few days after Easter, doing admin things mainly - but....if we can help with anything -let us know - were happy to deliver anything we already have in stock (including a few copies of American Dirt). Stay safe everybody. Karen x See more
