Feast your eyes on our first official rare book catalog!
We made this just for your, highlighting the very best of our rare and antiquarian collection, including some truly wild archival material. Many eye-popping titles are under $50!
Now you can support Uncharted Books when you purchase audiobooks through LibroFM! Monthly memberships and a la carte books are available, and your dollars go to your local bookstore instead of Amazon.
Uncharted Books opened in Logan Square in 2012 and lived in Andersonville until 2025. Now, come visit us in our permanent home in Northcenter, just across the street from Lane Tech high school.
Uncharted Books focuses on a curated selection of used, new, and rare books for every reader and every budget. Used paperback books start at just $4, and used comic books start at just $1!
Sit and read or soak in our cozy atmosphere, blending old world curiosities with a DIY ethos. Whether you're shopping for handmade zines, contemporary literature, vintage sci-fi paperbacks, or antique copies of classics, Uncharted Books has what you're looking for.
