Have you tried searching the bookstores in your neighborhood by name? I can't remember if it worked easily or not, because I've been using it forever, but when I google my bookshop and click on their website, they do have a link for onlineshopping to geniallokal.

Maybe you could ask your little bookshop if there is something similar they offer or if they could try to initiate something like it with their stockist.
