News from the Page After Page Bookstore -

Hi All, We just got back last week from the American Booksellers Association's Winter Institute in Salt Lake City Utah - it was Fantastic!! The mountains were unbelievable and huge!! We learned alot about bookselling and how to make it better for you our customers in these tough economic times - You will see new ideas being implemented in the store - please let us know what you think!!

Shopping local was one of the biggest topics - did you know that Independent business's employee 70% of the US?? Incredible - so check out our newly started blog on keeping it local in NC - We intend on really promoting this effort in North East North Carolina - and hopefully connecting with the entire state!
