There was an article in our local paper about a guy who was opening a new bookstore and reserving the top floor of the store for meeting space, which he planned to rent out to local literary groups. I think this type of store (i.e. 'books plus something else vaguely book-related') will be the model of the future. For example:
- Books plus coffee shop
- Books plus used books
- Books plus meeting space for rent
- Books plus something kid-related (make your own book?)
