Bookshop closes in June

The Book Collector, Parramatta’s only secondhand book shop, which has more than 20,000 books in over 100 categories on its shelves expects to close on June 30, after trading in the city for 12 years. The reasons being Barbara and Bill McLennan did not wish to renew their lease as the Parramall complex is up for redevelopment and they want time to “travel a little”. They will continue their business online.
