Found Books and Shop

About Us

Found Book & Shop is more than just a bookstore it’s a warm, welcoming hub for readers, creatives, and community connection in the heart of historic downtown Cochrane. We offer a thoughtfully curated selection of new books, used books, local gifts, coffee, wine, and vinyl, with cozy seating and conversation always encouraged. Our space also hosts author events, live music, art nights, open mics and book clubs, creating space for people to gather, share stories, and feel at home.

In addition to our regular offerings, we love working with local businesses to create unique team-building experiences, private events, and custom corporate gift boxes featuring Canadian books and artisanal products. Whether you're planning a retreat, celebrating a milestone, or just saying thank you, we’ll help you create something memorable.

Whether you're looking for your next great read or a place to connect, Found is here to inspire curiosity and community.
