On March 12, 2020, our little bookstore in Boston's North End neighborhood was closed for two weeks, to make sure our staff, our community, and our customers stay safe as the coronavirus pandemic puts everyone at risk. We hope to re-open on Friday, March 27. However, this is a tentative date, and if the situation in our area will still be critical, we will move our re-opening to a future date to be determined.

We are a business, but we are a family first and foremost, and we must look after each other. After speaking with my business partner and all the staff, we have convened that the best thing to do in these trying times is not put anyone at risk. Therefore we are also canceling or postponing all events through the end of April.
