The Paragraph library is a cornerstone of the Montreal literary scene since it opened in 1981 We are a general interest bookstore specializing in academic titles. Each year, the library organizes Paragraph many literary events.
Montreal has a lot of bookstores, but many of them only sell French titles. ParagrapheBookstore, on the other hand, is one of the best places in the city to satisfy your English literature needs.
The bookstore industry has changed a lot over the years, but Paragraphe has stayed the course and thrived thanks to the knowledge and passion of its employees. Everyone who works there loves books, and they all have their own area of expertise, whether it's literature, nonfiction or genre fiction. “People who come here sometimes don’t know what they're looking for and we help them find it," says Peter Mandelos, the director of operations at Paragraphe. "We have the knowledge. Our average employee has worked here for seven and a half years or longer. If you take that into consideration, that’s a lot of book knowledge."
