Many thanks to everyone who came out today for Indie Book Store Day!

What a wonderful Saturday we had here at the store! Many thanks and love to all the people who came by the store to welcome us, look around, or buy a book. Escanaba has some of the nicest people I've ever met, and we are so lucky to be a part of this community.

And keep your eyes open for a future announcement: we plan on having an official grand opening event later this spring - maybe early June. We will definitely let everyone know once we get the details ironed out. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon!

Credit Cards are go!

It may seem like a small thing, but we just got our credit card processing machine in, so now we can accept payment in the form of Visa and Mastercard credit and debit cards! Look at this little guy:

Welcome to the 20th century! Woo woo!

Book store re-boot, March 2018

For the last thirty-some years Shirley has kept an ongoing record of inventory, orders, and customer preferences in her head.

Without her, we are going to have to get organized! Most of the genres will be pretty familiar, but we are looking at new shelving and labels to make the store browseable and convenient. With a lot of shuffling and data entry, we aim to make our inventory digital as well.

Come in and let us know what you like about the "book store experience." What is your vision for our new store? After all, books are for dreamers :)
