Big news! 💫

In order to successfully exit Chapter 11, we are being acquired by Barnes & Noble, subject to the approval of Bankruptcy Court.

But that doesn't mean Books Inc. is going anywhere...

Going forward, we will still be Books Inc., locally run, with the same name, stores, culture, leadership, and booksellers you know and love.

More things you should know:
💫All gift cards will be honored.
💫Rewards points can be transferred into our new system.
💫Book clubs, author events, and community gatherings will continue as an essential part of who we are.
💫We plan to have a brief period during which our stores are closed for renovation.

This acquisition will give us the stability and resources to keep our shelves stocked with the books you're looking for, while keeping everything that makes Books Inc. special going strong.

We're excited to continue our story together and to celebrate our 175th anniversary with you next year!
