A welcome from John Bolduc, General Manager

Welcome to Borders at Union Square, in the heart of downtown San Francisco! Be sure to visit our "All Things Local" section on the 1st floor and ask for Louisa. Having worked in the book industry for many years, she has great product knowledge. Her recent Staff Selection is A Writer's San Francisco by Eric Maisel, with drawings by Paul Madonna. She says if you love our City,or love writing or books or art, or any combination of these, you'll love this book!

Additionally, we have a lively and diverse events program held in our dedicated event space on the 4th floor, where we regularly host nationally-recognized authors and musicians. Please join us!
