On the move

Since 1972, Bookmark has been a fixture in downtown Charlottetown. The bookstore initially started in a small location on Richmond Street and several years later moved to Queen Street to offer book lovers more selection in a larger space. Today Bookmark has deep roots in the community through its many community partnerships and charitable support, its active programming of author events and support for the Island literary community, and its well curated bookshop that is responsive to local demand.

In the summer of 2025, Bookmark will be furthering their commitment to being PEI’s bookseller by embarking on a new adventure in a new location. Bookmark will be moving around the corner onto Kent Street into the former home of Denis Office Supplies. 

Owner Dan MacDonald says, “We have outgrown our current space and look forward to increasing our assortment of books especially children’s but also categories like horror, non-fiction and others. We will also have more space to better display our stationery offering. We thank the PEI community for trusting us as their bookseller.”

The move is anticipated to take place in early June. Stay tuned to Bookmark’s web site and social media for ongoing updates.
