Our shelves are always changing thanks to the wonderful donations that we receive, and you can expect to find well-stocked sections, with particular strengths in art, philosophy, history and the social sciences. You can also browse a selection of rare and unusual books, as well as Greek and Latin texts, sheet music, maps and a decent foreign languages section.
Alongside the books we also sell a range of greeting cards and branded Amnesty products, as well as a wider ethical gift offer at Christmas.
We are always looking for people to join our volunteer team. If you want to learn more there is a bit more about volunteering in Amnesty bookshops here, to find out about the vacancies we have email cambridgebookshop@amnesty.org.uk or pop in for a chat.
