The oldest and largest used bookstore in Charlottesville, located on Fourth Street just off the Downtown Mall. The store was opened and is still owned by Sandy McAdams. It contains three floors packed with used books and over 120,000 titles.[1]

"Visiting the Poetry Room at Daedalus Bookshop" was rated by C-VILLE Weekly as number 8 on a list of "25 essential Charlottesville experiences for real locals" in 2009.[2] The Washington Post also called the shop "the best used-book store south of the Strand in Greenwich Village" and "a three-story temple of secondhand lit, a bibliophile's church"[3]
