Independent Bookstores to Shop at While Sheltering in Place

Christine Hoxmeier

Staff Writer

Christine Hoxmeier can usually be found hard at work in her beloved home of Austin with a cup of coffee in one hand and a taco in the other. She spends her free time reading, writing, and dreaming of a teleportation device so she can visit her friends spread across the globe on a daily basis. If it were possible to live inside one Disneyland attraction for the rest of her life, Christine would cheat and choose to split her time between It's A Small World and The Enchanted Tiki Room. She prefers to communicate in CAPSLOCK and with gifs. Twitter: @aramblingfancy

As we continue to stay home and shelter in place, one thing is becoming clear: we all need more books. Are we going to read them? *shrugs* Who can say. It depends on the day. But we need more books, and since the libraries are closed there is only one thing to do: we have to buy books from our local independent bookstore.

We’ve learned there are myriad ways to support indie bookstores right now, but first you need to find one to support. Whether you are a long-time customer of independent bookstores or are just trying to figure out a way to get a puzzle and some books for your kids in your home ASAP, they can definitely help you out. We’ve compiled a list of indie bookstores in the U.S., Canada, and the UK, and a brief rundown of how they are currently operating. This is by no means a comprehensive list of every. single. independent. bookstore—but we tried our best.

If you are able, find a local bookstore and place an order (or donate). If you are already buying books from your local bookstore—hey, great job! Maybe take a look at some of these others and buy a shirt or mystery box for a friend. Or why not plan a trip to visit a few new bookstores when we’re able to travel again and buy some gift cards in advance! And if you aren’t able to spend any money right now, post about them on social media—spreading the word that these bookstores are still around is so important.

All information presented here was current at the time of publishing, but please make sure to double check with the bookstore before placing an order!
