## Description

Capitol Hill Books is a vibrant used bookstore nestled in the historic Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Established in 1991 by Bill Kerr, the store has become a beloved fixture, known for its three floors of quality used books, including first editions and rare finds. After a change in ownership in 2018, a dedicated team of long-term employees continues to uphold the legacy of providing readers with an expansive selection that spans genres from fiction and mystery to history, philosophy, and more. Open to the public, Capitol Hill Books invites bibliophiles to browse its eclectic inventory in a cozy, bustling atmosphere. Customers can also donate books or sell collections by appointment. The store’s unique layout includes specialized rooms for different genres and even a “Weird Section” for the adventurous reader. Situated just steps away from iconic landmarks like Eastern Market and the U.S. Capitol, it’s more than just a bookstore—it's a cultural hub for book lovers in the heart of D.C.
