Archives Book Shop closes at the end of this month, but we still have about a week to go of our 50% off almost everything sale to help clear the shelves and prepare to move everything out of the space. It's a surreal time for all, and we've deeply appreciated every news story, donation, and well wish we've received.

In the meantime, our fundraiser for the costs of closing Archives is still running -- and in no danger of clearing many hurdles. Please note! This isn't a request for charity: Every donation tier comes with a reward as our Thank You for the community's support!
