I find the bookstore and its materials useful and interesting. More importantly the prices are reasonable.

I do not live in DC anymore, but when I go there on a visit I love to go to the bookstore and browse the publications. Please keep it open, or al least a smaller version of it!!! Thank you very much.

The Bookstore is such a valuable asset, a great addition to the Institution as a Knowledge Bank.

I visit it several times a year. It is the place I go to spot the latest and most important books on economic development and to update myself on what the World Bank staff has written recently. I consider it an outstanding resource.

It's a landmark and enjoy the selection of books - use as gifts for visiting country delegations.

This is an international intellectual staple. Please do not deny us who rely on this source of information. What would it take to keep the bookstore?

I love the WB Bookstore (Infoshop) I'd really want WB management to reconsider its position and keep the Infoshop opened (at its current location).

I feel that the infoshop is part of the personality of the WB , there is still people that doesn't have access to sophisticated technology and need hard books and etc, etc, many reasons but not time to explain all

The infoShop is an important resource serving the larger WBG and development community. It is important to reconsider this questionable decision to close it.

I go to that bookstore every time I am in town. There is no other good source for many of the books the bookstore carries.

The Infoshop is a wonderful store, filled with many unique titles which are hard/impossible to find elsewhere. And it's the only place where our publications are widely available for purchase. Please keep the Infoshop open!

With increasing globalization, this is one important sign to the wider community of the importance of international development institutions and issues.
