Leonard Riggio, a brash, self-styled underdog who transformed the publishing industry by building Barnes & Noble into the country’s most powerful bookseller before his company was overtaken by the rise of Amazon.com, has died at age 83. ABC News reports:

#loompanics unlimited was a very interesting #bookseller selling #books , many of which would get you in a trouble - back in the day possibly, in these days almost certainly.
However, their #Catalogs contained a lot of great #writing . #goldenrecords is one of three (if I remember correctly...or four in total?) #compilations of these #articles . And even when outdated, still entertaining.
Recommended for the inner #rebel in you.

@bookstodon I shop ALL of the online booksellers, but recently came up on a new one to me: https://bookoutlet.com/books

They currently have a $5.99 sale on fiction, and the sale titles are surprisingly popular.

On a related note, if you need a specific book, and want to do a price comparison across various sellers and conditions, I have found https://www.bookfinder.com to be very helpful.

ABA Winter Institute: booksellers call on body to support Gaza ceasefire

“So many are speaking to support Palestine and against genocide but it’s incredibly strange to not hear from our parent organisation.”

This week's #substack talks about the #Fantasy Realms of Imagination exhibition at the @britishlibrary, how utterly magical it was, and why fantasy isn't just some childish escape.

The Bemused Bookseller. One of the keys to enjoying any jigsaw puzzles is finding a 'sympathetic' image. I really liked this one and thus enjoyed completing it a great deal. Who wouldn't want to visit a bookshop like this one? And it was a Ravensburger puzzle too, which means quality pieces that fit perfectly.

#jigsaw #puzzle #bookshop #ravensburger #bookseller

↪ the first known #bookseller, started his #business in 1650

Old and used #books are the store’s expertise. Unique and exceptional copies are blended with city guides and political references on the tables set up at a street level, which—combined with the fantastic opportunities at reasonable prices—make this book sanctuary a haven for both collectors and curious shoppers

#Librería_de_San_Ginés is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 am to 8:30 pm. Closed on Sundays

#News

Best of the #books currently for sale in my ebay shop. Quality, like new used books at more than half off the original price!

Hello #bookstodon I am an unemployed writer looking for my next day job and am struggling to pay for food, insurances, and rent. Instead of asking for money, I am asking to please support if you can by buying used #books from my eBay shop: https://www.ebay.com/usr/allen.books

I am adding new books every week, so take a look to see if something catches your eye. Thank you!

Bless @internetarchive for saving the interesting website of the late #AnnSwinfen, to which she was adding until her sudden death in August 2018. Here's her introduction to #medieval #records & to the business of the #bookseller, supplying both affordable #textbooks to students & fine illustrated #manuscripts to wealthy patrons:

Thinking of #14thCentury #Oxford thanks to the splendid #MedievalMurderMaps, I'm delighted to see that the #OxfordMedievalMysteries are on sale again. These evocative #novels by #AnnSwinfen are set in 1353-4, the adventures of a young #bookshop proprietor as life & business begin to normalise after the #plague.
Buy from https://www.hive.co.uk/Search/Search?Series=Oxford%20Medieval%20Mysteries & support your favourite #IndieBookshop, so that they too may live to write a #Bookseller's Tale!

@libreture @bookstodon Oh whoa...thanks for putting this list together! I just found out that #JNovelClub is a #DRMfree #bookseller.

Same dumb ideas, new instance.

A re- #introduction: M. Blind, he/him. That's me in the profile pic.

A former #bookseller (15 years at one of the big US chains, laid off) and still a bookseller at heart, and a huge #book, #scifi, #fantasy, and #ttrpg enthusiast. Too many works-in-progress to count, as I suffer from both #worldbuilders disease and have a bad habit of not finishing things. Nice to meet y'all, looking forward to great conversations.

Just for the record, no it's not okay to go into a bookshop and photograph pages from inside the books.

My favourite story from working as a music-specialist #bookseller.

Imogen Holst was one of our customers, and everytime she rang to order a book, she also said:

'This is Imogen Holst, that's H. O. L. S. T'.... as if her father had not been one of the most famous British composers ever.

she was a complete sweetheart!

Hi, I'm a Melbourne-based author, editor, and lecturer in writing and publishing (at RMIT University). This year I've also been working on sustainability issues in the book industry. My latest novel is Moon Sugar, published by Transit Lounge. It's a sexy cross-genre ride and a recent review in The Guardian called it 'life-affirming' :) I like to connect with other bookish folks, queer folks, those working in sustainability & more.
