While local booksellers canât compete with Amazon on price, they can offer unparalleled customer service with a deep knowledge of books and passion not found on the Internet. Loyal customers also know that buying books locally directly makes a difference in their communities.

Julia Booksellers in Madison, celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. âItâs been an interesting year to put it lightly,â said Liz Bartek, marketing manager. âItâs also been really amazing because we are very aware of the fact that itâs been a challenging year for many retail businesses, including bookstores. We have felt extremely fortunate that our customers have really supported us during this time.â
