RECRUITMENT SERVICES

When we launched our first local jobsite in 2005 for East Yorkshire, never did we dream it could become so popular and so very widely used! To build on this even further in the future, this week we have acquired the following domains to develop northyorkshirejobs.co.uk / southyorkshirejobs.co.uk / westyorkshirejobs.co.uk / so one day soon all employers and job seekers throughout the whole of Yorkshire will be able to benefit. Plus you employers and agencies out there, will save many thousands of pounds on recruiting fees, compared with what you currently pay to advertise vacancies.

30 YEARS THIS MONTH SINCE OUR FIRST BOOKSHOP OPENED!

Bookshop premises one opened at 4A Main Street, Garforth, Leeds, exactly 30 years ago. Garfield performed the official opening ceremony a week or so after our doors opened to the public for the very first time!

Roger Crossland, the founder, continues to run the Bookshop online today, after our Main Street lease ran out in 2012, heralding the imminent closure of Bookshop premises two, which had been relocated by us to 15 Main Street, Garforth, Leeds during 1997.

Up until 2003 the shop always price matched with amazon.co.uk and was the very first Bookshop in the UK to ever do that, however these days the majority of books you can purchase online via our website, will now cost you less when paying with a credit card or debit card (not by Book Tokens). Anyone noticed recently how expensive Amazon's non-top-ten have become, where have all those big book discounts gone for all?
