Celebrate Independent Bookstore Day at the Midtown Scholar! As a proud participant with over 1,200 independent bookstores across the country in this one-day national event, we’ll have family-friendly programs, activities, exclusive merchandise, giveaways, raffles, and so much more. Independent Bookstore Day was established in 2013 to promote, celebrate, and highlight the value of the independent bookstore community. The day has been observed on the last Saturday of April every year since 2013.
Why Celebrate Independent Bookstore Day at the Scholar?
Independent bookstores are not just stores, they’re community centers and local anchors run by passionate readers. They are entire universes of ideas that contain the possibility of real serendipity. They are lively performance spaces and quiet places where aimless perusal is a day well spent.
In a world of tweets and algorithms and pageless digital downloads, bookstores are not a dying anachronism. They are living, breathing organisms that continue to grow and expand. In fact, there are more of them this year than there were last year. And they are at your service.
