Libraccio Opens Fifth Rome Bookstore in the Heart of Parioli, 69th in Italy

11 November 2026

In Rome, in the heart of the Parioli district, at 48 Via Filippo Civinini, a new Libraccio bookstore opens, a reference in the world of used books (and beyond), which strengthens its presence in the capital with the opening of its 69th point of sale nationwide and the fifth in the city.

The new bookstore rises in the heart of the Parioli district: covering a total area of 175 square meters, the shop will offer the public an estimated selection of over 10,000 books, including new, used, and bargain titles. There will also be school textbooks available year-round, with options for reservation and pickup, in addition to a service for buying and valuing used books.

To complete the offering of the new Roman bookstore, the range includes fiction, non-fiction, comics, rare titles, vintage items, young readers’ books, games, and stationery.

The official opening is scheduled for Thursday, November 12, starting from 6:00 p.m. The inauguration will be accompanied by a toast offered by Casale del Giglio.

A new cultural hub in an iconic neighborhood

The Parioli district, which became in the course of the 20th century a symbol of Roman elegance, in the 1960s—the era of the Dolce Vita—established itself as a true cultural salon and a refuge for intellectuals, artists, and politicians. Today, the Parioli maintain this vocation thanks to the proximity of centers of gathering and entertainment such as the Auditorium Parco della Musica, designed by Renzo Piano, and the historic sports hubs of Acqua Acetosa and the Palazzetto dello Sport. In this dynamic context, Libraccio has therefore decided to insert itself “with the aim of strengthening its bond with the local community, positioning itself as a meeting place and cultural gathering spot for people of all ages.”

I write about books the way I read them: slowly, curiously, and with attention to the details that linger after the final page. At Lythrum Press, I cover literary fiction, essays, memoirs and the wider culture of reading, with a particular interest in voices that challenge familiar ways of seeing the world. My work is guided by one simple idea: a good book deserves more than a reaction — it deserves a conversation.
