The People’s Coop Bookstore at 1391 Commercial Drive is the oldest existing bookstore in Canada. It was founded 75 years ago and has been a popular fixture on the Drive since 1983. Like so many volunteer-operated services these days, the Bookstore needs help to survive for another 75 years. And so they have launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise $75,000.

The Bookstore has recently re-opened on weekends (Sat & Sun, 11-4), following strict social distancing protocols, and you can help their future directly by visiting the store and buying books to keep you going through the rest of our lock-down period and beyond.
