In more "recent" versions of Django, since at least 1.9, it is possible to simple determine the add, change and delete permissions on the admin class. See the django admin documentation for reference. Here is an example:

class Admin(admin.ModelAdmin):

    def has_add_permission(self, request):

        return False
