Some people find themselves right now with a lot of extra quiet time in the house. You could stew. You could tweet. Or, how about you get some reading done?
While most libraries are closed, many of the state’s independent book shops are still operating, providing either curbside pick-up or delivery for customers. While the shops used to provide a space to gather and browse, they are now functioning as makeshift warehouses, taking orders and packing books, toys and games.
We checked in with the owners of four independent bookshops to see how they see their role during the pandemic.
