VicBooks Closure w/ General Manager Jessica Godfrey: June 10th, 2022

Victoria University of Wellington's Pipitea campus bookstore, VicBooks, has recently announced their closure. 

Whilst the store was already having difficulties coming out of the pandemic, the early years anti-mandate protests at parliament made matters much more difficult.

The Pipitea campus is located directly next to the Beehive, meaning they were forced to completely close down until the protests ended, and couldn’t bounce back after reopening. 

To hear more, Liam spoke to VicBooks General Manager Jessica Godfrey.
