Small Business Saturday!

Small Business Saturday/Indies First

Featuring guest authors as handsellers!

Small Business Saturday is a day dedicated
to supporting small businesses across the country. Founded by American
Express in 2010, this day is celebrated every year on the Saturday after
Thanksgiving. This year, Small Business Saturday is on November 30th. Please come out and support our neighborhood and community.

The Doylestown Bookshop is pleased to host Local Authors as Guest Booksellers on Small Business Saturday, November
30.  Tiffany Schmidt & Marie Lamba, will be in the store from 11 AM to 1PM. Authors Jon Satin, Chris Pattay, Dr. Marion T. Lane,
Phoebe Wilcox & Kit Grindstaff
will be joing us from 1 PM to 3 PM. The authors will be chatting with customers and recommending their favorite books.



Hundreds of
independent bookstores across the country will be hosting local authors this
November 30, Small Business Saturday, thanks to a movement called Indies
First
. Launched by noted author Sherman Alexie, Indies First encourages
authors to volunteer at their local store, to give back some of the support
that independent bookstores have traditionally given to authors.





Indies First also encourages authors—and anybody who wants to sell
a book through a website—to make the indie “Buy” button the FIRST among all
e-retailer choices on their websites.
