The Age of Reading Is Over - The Atlantic

[orthoclad]

13. Damn few bookstores these days

I remember a lot of small quirky stores, which morphed into the big box stores with coffee shops and live music. All gone now. I think there's a tiny Barnes and Noble around, and a few punk-ish new-wavish stores.

I make it a point to support my local library. I make them search for rare stuff from interlibrary loan, both books and movies. I make suggestions for purchases. They love the challenge. I never stream, I check out dvd's for entertainment. Make snacks and drinks for movie night.
