About The Dogears Bookshop

The Dogears Bookshop is an independent bookshop on the ground floor of Adolfo Mansion on Rua Bernardo da Costa in Margao, and the centre of South Goa's reading community. Alongside new and second-hand books it runs a regular programme of book releases, author conversations, reading-group discussions and 'Scribblers Anonymous', a meet-up for people who write; its October 2026 calendar listed all three kinds of event. The shop is open Monday to Saturday from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm and on Sunday from 10 am to 1 pm. Events are small, usually free and held among the shelves, so they suit anyone looking for a quiet evening in Margao rather than a night on the coast.
