Subterranean Books

Subterranean Books was a bookstore located at 9 East Gregory Street, owned by Paul Williams. The store opened in 1997[date uncertain] at 4113 Barrancas Avenue and moved to a downtown location on October 7, 2000. The store offered a selection of new and used books, as well as a limited selection of mostly used vinyl records. Subterranean Books specialised in alternative literature and poetry.

The bookstore closed suddenly in late September 2007.

For several years, Subterranean Books also operated the Subterranean Prison Book Project, a volunteer program to send books to Florida prison inmates.[1]
