Welcome to The Shetland Times Bookshop, Britain's most northerly general bookshop, situated over 60 degrees north and closer to Norway than to London. We are an independent shop which has been selling books since 1949.

Living and working in the unique Shetland environment has its challenges, but also its rewards! We are lucky to have a glorious wild landscape on our doorstep and a rich and vibrant cultural life in which literature in all its forms plays a vital part. 

We are passionate about the books we sell, happy to offer recommendations and and we care about the service we offer our customers, wherever they are. If you are looking for our Shetland titles please visit our dedicated bookshop website https://shop.shetlandtimes.co.uk/  

While we love to see you here in the shop we appreciate that there are times when this is not possible and you need to shop online. By shopping with us on Bookshop.org you can still support our independent bookshop. 

Thank you for your support. We look forward to seeing you soon.
