Bookshop: A centralized shopping website for independent bookstores. Start here instead of at Amazon! Discovered through this Forbes article.
@djwudi the FAQ says that the books don’t actually come from local stores, but from Ingram.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
@nitinkhanna I didn’t recognize the Ingram name, but between the details in the Forbes article and the ABA backing, it seemed legit. Is it not? Seems like it’s gotta be better for the participating bookstores than Amazon.
@djwudi ok, read the article. There’s a lot of interesting merit there. I have read about this company before, but seeing it’s registered as a B-Corp makes a difference…
