Once Read Used Book Store, located in a historic building in Mankato, Minnesota, offers a diverse selection of literature, including mysteries, sci-fi, romance novels, and more. Established in 1975 by Mark Hustad, this second-hand bookstore has grown from a modest collection of 200 books to thousands, serving the community as a vibrant hub for book lovers and those wishing to exchange their own reads.

The building itself, constructed around 1870, has hosted various businesses throughout its history, and marks the first brick structure in the area. So far, Once Read has become the longest-running business at this location, with Hustad owning both the store and the building, adding a unique legacy to the site.

Lovely used bookshop with so much charm, character and, of course, the cats! This place has existed in a relatively small town forever (40 years)! I started going there as a child in the late...

Own this business?
See a problem?
