To complement our existing bricks and mortar store, we've developed a complete online store as well. This means that you can now browse and buy all your books online and collect them at the shop.
No risky on line credit card payment
No bulky mail deliveries while you are away, advertising the fact
No unecolgical mail packaging
Your custom supports a local business and stays in the local economy, not a distant (often foreign) shareholder's pocket.
Naturally, we would prefer if you could come into the store as often as possible - so that 'the personal touch' is not lost. In fact, we like to think of ourselves as a 'clicks and mortar ' bookshop, combining the best of traditional and pc-based shopping.

Nestling in a cobbled street only a stone's throw from Hexham's ancient Abbey, Cogito Books is a place in which people like to linger; classical music plays quietly as customers browse the tables and shelves.
There are no piles of best-sellers and no book is recommended unless a member of the family has read and enjoyed it.
Passion for books and excellent service make Cogito an integral part of this market town: friends and families meet up here, tickets for local concerts are sold here, even the most reluctant reader is helped to find the right book by staff who know their stock. This is independent bookselling at its best.
