They didn't have a book I've been looking for, but their inventory system was able to find it and have it shipped.

Low-fi charm with a hi-fi backbone. The quintiscential Cantabrigian hideaway. Good books, good people, and home to the one and only Chicken Machine!

Lorem Ipsum takes the 'hopeless' out of 'idealism' helping other independent bookstores make it. Their software now makes the dream of opening an independent bookstore a viable reality for all of us dreamers.

Wonderful people; exciting and innovative thinking; working to preserve what could otherwise be the end of one of the great institutions of American culture, the neighborhood bookstore. Matt Mankins should be applauded for devoting his extraordinary creative talents to this kind of a cause.
