About Us
Pelican Bookstore is an independent bookstore with a friendly, knowledgeable staff dedicated to providing the best in customer service. Founded in 1998 by Anne Harris, Pelican Bookstore became both a gathering place for the community and a source for children and adults to find new and used books while at the beach. Current owners Dawn and Jim Miller bought the bookstore in 2021 and are dedicated to keeping it a local mainstay for our beach community. A recipient of The Best of Brunswick award for Best Bookstore for the past two years, Pelican Bookstore prides itself on promoting a lifelong love of reading and literacy, providing a collection of diverse books and helping every customer connect with books they will love!
