About The Owl's Nest

One of Calgary's finest independent booksellers for over 30 years, the Owl's Nest owners and staff take pride in their highly-specialized customer care.  We are dedicated to bringing the right books to the right people. 

Since 1996, the store's home has been the Britannia Shopping Plaza.  Owlets, our children's store adjoining Owl's Nest, opened in 2002.  We've organized school book fairs since 1999 and opened the Satellite Book Fairs division in 2007.

We offer:

  • Friendly, knowledgeable service
  • Book clubs for adults, teens and children
  • Special orders of new and out-of-print books
  • Free delivery within 8km of our store
