Book Sense

Information Outlook, Oct, 2004 by Jill Strand

For those who appreciate the expertise and personal attention offered by their local independent or specialty bookstore, this site is a wonderful respite from the usual blockbuster fare. Managed by the American Booksellers Association, it began with a bestseller list driven less by sales and more by bookseller recommendations. It now includes an e-commerce alternative. You can enter your zip code to find the Book Sense member store closest to you, shop online or browse the Book Sense Picks for new reading materials. You can even purchase a Book Sense gift card good at member stores across the country If you like to discover new titles and support smaller independent business, this site is worth exploring.
