We Have Moved to 1700 West Douglas Wichita, Kansas. Come Visit Our Store!
After 6 years in downtown Wichita, Al’s Old and New Book Store has moved in 2020 back to the Delano District! 1700 W Douglas is the latest address, just 3 doors east of where the store had been located for 40 years prior to the downtown location. Our location is now on the corner of Millwood and Douglas with free, parallel parking on both streets just west of the railroad tracks. Store hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 am to 5:00 pm and closed Sunday & Monday
Our phone number is still 316-264-8763, the same as it has been since 1957.
This building is ADA compliant for aisle widths, but as this in a 102 year old building, there some inconveniences. Please let us help you if you cannot reach books that may be in a tight spot or are on a high shelf.
Al's Old & New Books is in it's 67th year of selling books in Wichita. We stock used, out-of-print and rare books in both hardcover and paperback. We also stock new local authors and local history books. Special search services are available for hard to find titles.

Aviation, Engineering, Sciences, Art, Religion, Cooking, Pets and many more non-fiction subjects.
