Collected Works is an independent bookstore serving the vibrant community to the West of downtown Ottawa. Located on Wellington Street at Holland, we stock the best in Canadian, American, and British books with a strong emphasis on literary fiction, poetry and children's books. It's a place made for book lovers and anyone who makes books part of their day-to-day life.

We're well known for our knowledgeable and opinionated staff, as well as our special order service . Our coffee, espresso and specialty drinks made from Timothy's gourmet blends are the best on the block (although we'd guess you'd have to go a lot farther to get a better tasting cup), and if you want to see how much good stuff can be fit in a 3-inch diameter, try one of our decadent cookies.

The store is also a venue for exhibitions by local artists, readings by writers, book club discussions, and workshops for aspiring writers. Check the events page for details.
