One for the books
A local independent bookseller is getting some love on the Internet.
The website mic.com ranked Bozeman's Country Bookshelf one of the best and most interesting independent bookstores in the world.
The Main Street bookshop is known especially for its collection of regional titles, according to the website.
“Montana has more bookstores per capita than any other state, and the largest indie store is the Country Bookshelf, located in the state's fourth largest city,” the website states.
The Country Bookshelf was one of 19 named in the article. Also on the list were other stores in the U.S. as well as in Spain, Norway, China and Lebanon.
The article quotes a statistic from the American Booksellers Association that says the number of independent bookstores has been on the rise during the last few years, increasing from 1,651 in 2009 to 1,900 in 2012.
“People love bookstores, and with good reason. There are some incredible independent booksellers across the country and around the world that make book browsing all the more fun,” the website states.
