The storm delivered on its promise, and then some.
With snow still falling into Monday morning, we will be closed Monday, January 26th, so our crew can clear everything safely. We plan to reopen for shopping on Tuesday, once the paths are passable and the snowbanks stop growing personalities.
Because the forecast calls for extreme cold all week, we will not be buying books. Our outdoor book-buying station needs fingers that can still feel things. We are aiming for a possible return to book buying around February 1st, weather permitting.
Thanks for sticking with us through winter’s grand performance. Stay warm and read something excellent.
