I still have 2 unfilled bookcases of printed books as well as a bunch of "coffee table"(?) books; the big coffee table books are nice & heavy & are at the bottom of the bookcase for stability & anchor. Just too lazy to get rid of them now.
Some time past my favorite used bookstore closed; they stated the the cause of closing was the legislated increase of the minimum wages & health. I do believe that as they had high school(?) students working part time to help maintain the books; there lots of books for all categories. At times one had to go past books on the floor to get to the shelves; the books on the floor were books not 'cataloged' or listed somewhere.
The bookstore was very large & they took in books for trade! The store was also useful for teachers to order books (new) for their students. The closing was noted in a segment of the local news & definitely mourned by many.
