We  are a nonprofit organization that provides literary programs, free books to the community, and services to the community. 

Peninsula Books is a project of Peninsula Book Collaborative. Peninsula Books is a nonprofit bookstore and community space.

We provide a space for literary efforts and build a community of lifelong learners.

Our three focus areas:

• Bookstore
• Community Space
• Books Access

We opened in late October 2023 and our grand opening was in December 2023. You can find out more about our history and complete timeline here. 

Since we are a non-profit, there is not one owner. There is a board that oversees operations and volunteers who operate the store. The non-profit is for all. 

Our bookstore hours are

Tuesday – Friday 10 am-8 pm
Saturday and Sunday 10 am-6 pm

We can, and often host events and activities outside of those hours.

We need a day to reset and refresh the space. We do this on Mondays. 

We do not buy books but we do accept book donations on Sundays. More information here: Donate Books
