Australian Booksellers Propose Tax Offset to Support Bookstores
"Books are not merely consumer goods; they carry cultural, educational and democratic value that markets do not fully price,” reads a policy brief from the Australian Booksellers Association. “When structural pressures and loss-leader pricing displace specialist bookshops, the infrastructure that supports Australian literary culture is eroded.”

Today's cartoon by @tomgauld.bsky.social - on point as I head down to do a shift at Edinburgh Community Bookshop...
"Librarians v booksellers."

"There's... er..." My new assistant bookseller faltered.
Over by the window, an open book hovered. As I looked, a page turned.
I picked up my hag stone and peered through it.
"Just a ghost. That's a relief."
"What else..."
"Imps, devils, people with invisibility spells. The last are worst."

worldcat.org lets you find books at libraries; sometimes your local library will have it!
Some public library systems offer interlibrary loan, where they can borrow a book (or get a copy of an article) from another library for you. (Academic libraries do this as a rule.)
Worldcat also links to a few online booksellers, including Better World Books, VitalSource, AbeBooks, and Am*z*n.

“This was an attempt to ‘#ThoughtPolice,’ & this victory over #totalitarianism is a testament to the courage of #librarians, #booksellers & #readers who refused to bow to #intimidation,” said Holly Dickson, the exec director of the #ACLU of #Arkansas.
Gov #SarahHuckabeeSanders, a #Republican, said in a statement that “#schools & #libraries shouldn’t put *obscene* material in front of our kids,” & she vowed to work w/ #TimGriffin, the state’s AG, to appeal the ruling.
-
The ruling by Judge Timothy Brooks of the #US District Court in the Western District of #Arkansas is certain to be appealed. But his decision on Monday provided at least a temporary victory to #librarians & #booksellers who have said that the #law would create a chilling effect since anyone could object to any book & pursue #criminal charges against the person who provided it.

Judge Strikes Down Portions of #Arkansas #Law That Threatened #Librarians

A federal judge has struck down portions of an AR law that could have sent librarians & #booksellers to #prison for providing material that might be considered *harmful* [#educational] to minors.
