Created in 1981 at the initiave of a handful of teachers and students, UQAM's Coop quickly accomplished its primary mandate: to provide campus students with educational tools that would allow for the completion of their university career in the best conditions.

​

At first a single bookstore selling didactic textbooks, a complementary stationery was soon added, soon followed by a second and a third bookshops. The originally exclusive selection was growing more and more inclusive, adding to its academic scope specialized, foreign and general literature.

​

Recognized by the Quebec Ministry of Culture, our main bookstore offers the widest choice in a wide variety of fields.

​

In order to meet the specific needs of the art faculty attached to UQAM, a shop dedicated to materials for artists was created, allowing students to find what they need on the spot at competitive prices.

​

Finally, in order to keep pace with the expectations of students, teachers and UQAM's administrative structures, Boutique Informatique was born. Through this website, you will be able to see a selection of our product lines, as well as the services we provide.

 

This brings us to today. Coop UQAM is made of five stores, supported by a web-based merchant site [www.coopuqam.com].

​

From a clientele that used to span to the university community alone, Coop UQAM now welcomes anyone, ensuring to the greatest number of people a wide choice, quality service and the best prices.
