It's official, this is your bookstore's new home!
We're counting on you to help feather the new nest at 454 E Vandalia ST, in Edwardsville.
We'll be closed April 26th-May 15th to move and get all settled but, until then, please do continue to visit us at our current location and purchase books to your heart's desire; moving thousands of books is no small feat.
Moving, and closing the shop to facilitate it, will no doubt prove costly. Though we're not comfortable soliciting donations, we are, instead, offering some fantastic rewards/incentives to those who make a contribution toward the bookstore's new home. Check out our fundraising campaign to see how you can help and what wonderful goodies we're offering in appreciation of your support.
Thanks so much to all who have already contributed over $4,000 to the moving fund! Every little bit counts and inches us closer to our fundraising goal during this exciting albeit financially stressful time. We're planning a grand re-opening celebration on May 16th and are looking forward to sharing the day with all of you.
