'Bookstores Add Another Texture to a Community'

Shelf Awareness

"People really do want to read, and if we have a passion for reading or passion for information and knowledge and understanding, then bookstores are another wonderful and tried and true vehicle for that. I like to say that bookstores add another texture to a community."

--Janet Jones, owner of Source Booksellers, Detroit, Mich., speaking with Michigan Radio about the rise of independent bookstores.
