May 3, 2019

CORRECTION & CLARIFICATION: Good news! PBC is happy to report that there has been good PROGRESS toward an agreement with the university. In the short-term, they are HOPEFUL to be able to stay open through the summer. If this can happen that would give them time to develop a sustainable business model come September. (So let’s HOPE for no liquidation sale at the end of May!). 

This is a major step. But it’s still an uphill battle.

NOW more than ever, every book sale counts toward keeping the business open during these critical months of planning. HOW YOU can help:

a. go to the store and buy a book

b. take a selfie with your new book & post it to #SavePennBookCenter #SavePBC.  We will link to it through our new Instagram account: @SavePBC and our new website.

c. visit the website for updates (more trenchant Op-Ed news pieces forthcoming!) and for next week's May 6-10 Literary Scavenger Hunt. All are welcome to join the fun-- especially students and graduating seniors. Prizes await you at the end of the Hunt. The games begin on MONDAY!     http://www.savepennbookcenter.com/

In MAY, say NAY to corporate brands ('not today'!), and YAY and MORE To local brick & mortar bookstores!
