Salient: Victoria University Students' Paper. Vol. 27, No. 6. 1964.

University Bookshop

The outgoing Executive has been noticeably slow in investigating the proposal mooted by President Blizard. A Student bookshop on the campus is a necessity, and should be incorporated in the New Student Union Building Extensions-even at the cost of losing the "Higher Priced Dining Room". The difficulty is the effective combatting of a price war which could easily cripple such an enterprise. My proposal is to set up a co-operative organisation open to all students with all members able to buy books at a price only slightly below store prices. However, at regular intervals, all members would receive cash payments, equalling 20 or 30 per cent reduction, according to the worth of the books purchased.
