THE ENSOC Shop
ENSOC operate a stationery shop at arms length from the main organisation. The shop also operates as an information desk for the Society and the School. It has been known to be in operation from before 1960 and is run by a shopkeeper interviewed and selected by the outgoing committee at the end of each year. As shop staff are volunteers prices are close to cost price.

Famous quotes containing the word shop:
“So it is with books, for the most part: they work no redemption on us. The bookseller might certainly know that his customers are in no respect better for the purchase and consumption of his wares. The volume is dear at a dollar, and after to reading to weariness the lettered backs, we leave the shop with a sigh, and learn, as I did without surprise of a surly bank director, that in bank parlors they estimate all stocks of this kind as rubbish.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
