University Bookshop Canterbury

UBS is one of New Zealand’s largest independent bookstores. We are a community bookstore located on the Ilam Campus at University Drive, Ilam, Christchurch.  There is always a steady stream of students and staff in the shop, but it is also home to many of the city’s readers. We hold an extensive selection of titles including New Zealand titles, fiction, non-fiction and classics, and children’s books catering for newborns through to young adults. If we haven’t got it, we will do our utmost to source it for you! We also have a large selection of stationery, giftware, cards and UC Alumni merchandise. UBS has friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff to help you make the right selection.  Come and visit us, we would love to have you!
