Bookselling: Hard Times at Modern Times
PublishersLunch


San Francisco's Modern Times Bookstore has told customers by e-mail they are "facing a financial crisis and urgently need an influx of cash if we are going to be able to pay our bills through the summer." They add: "We absolutely believe that it is possible to function more sustainably but we need your help right now if we are going to get to the more lucrative fall and winter months and be able to put into place the changes that will help us survive."

In business for 39 years, they say they are "one of the few remaining independent, collectively run, politically progressive bookstores in North America."
