To our wonderful book community,

Emerging from many weeks of missing you during the pandemic, we are thrilled to announce that we are reopening the bookstore next week, Friday, July 10th! We are also thrilled to unveil a brand new name, Block Shop Books! 

We are relaunching after a change in partnership with a new name but the same great selection and hand-picked recommendations. "Block Shop Books" is a nod to the historic building we’re housed in, Lunenburg’s old Block Shop which manufactured wooden pulleys for sailing ships. Our new website is blockshopbooks.ca and our new email is blockshopbooks@gmail.com. Our phone number (902-634-4015) and address (125 Montague Street, Lunenburg, Nova Scotia) remain the same and all prior gift cards will be honoured.

We can’t wait to welcome you back after these tumultuous times! We have COVID-19 protocols in place to ensure everyone’s safety in store. If you don’t feel comfortable visiting us in person, however, we also offer free weekly delivery to Lunenburg and Mahone Bay areas as well as mail delivery. We are also happy to arrange “curbside” pick-up.  Please call or browse and order your books online at blockshopbooks.ca.

Looking forward to reconnecting soon,

Jo and Anne-Marie
