Publishers Weekly has spearheaded an effort to have tomorrow (11-7) serve as National Bookstore Day. They are encouraging indie bookstores across the nation to participate by holding one day promotional events including: raffles, giveaways, discounts, prize baskets, and other ideas.
The Publishers Weekly website shows three Oregon bookstores partaking in the festivities: Third Street Books in McMinnville, Grass Roots Books & Music in Corvallis, and Portland’s St. John’s Booksellers who is having a “buy 2 get 1 free sale.” I’m sure that every other Portland (and Oregon) bookstore would enjoy you celebrating National Bookstore Day at their store as well.
So use this as an excuse to get some early Christmas shopping taken care of for that book lover in your life, or just as a way to celebrate all that neighborhood bookstores bring to our communities.
