From shops in Paddington and Berrima, Berkelouw has been rapidly expanding.
For at least a decade visiting the Berkelouw's Book Barn at Berrima has been one of the highlights of any trip to the Southern Highlands. Paul Berkelouw's card declares that the family have been "antiquarian bookdealers since 1812" - that's a long tradition. This shop is large and airy, with a range of new and secondhand stock. Prices are reasonable, although there are few real "steals" on the shelves. Paddington is a little out of the way for me (I'm firmly based at the University of Sydney main campus) but I go out of my way to check on Berkelouw's approximately once per month. [CC]
