Blog ReBOOT – A New Bookshop Blog Coming Soon

A ReBoot of The Bookshop Blog.

The ReBoot will consist of a brand new look, daily news and hopefully continued support from the bookselling community. You guys are what made this site with your contributions and links – thanks. As a more tangible thank you I will be displaying, for free, 125x125px ad spots for any independent book dealers.

Downturns can lead to inspiration and positive change

Looking for comments.. What are you expecting for the coming year and for those that have successfully gone through previous downturns do you have any advice for newer owners?

The net has been cast now lets see if any great comments get caught. As a little incentive I will post a prominent link on our sidebar for one or two of the more interesting commentators. (for a couple of weeks).

What's your credit policy? Let us Know.

Hi All! January 1st is a big day for us as we are changing how we do
business. In the past we would give a book credit for books that could
be used on more used books in the store, no exceptions. Most of the
time we were playing library as cash was coming in on amounts people
were spending over their credit but we are finding that people are only
spending their credit and nothing to pay the “rent” so to speak.
