Bookstore Celebrates 10 Years

The independent bookstore "Dave Shoots, Bookseller" is celebrating its 10 year anniversary, which is nothing compared to the age of the books they sell.

Wendy Matheson and her father opened the store on Coburg Street ten years ago to sell old hard covers.

The store is having an Open House on August 13th and 14th to celebrate the milestone and will have a display of old bindings and miniature books.

Matheson says they don't really have a problem competing with major book stores because they don't carry the same type of stock.
