Middleburg Books Has Scheduled A Grand Opening!
We are thrilled to announce that we will beopening our little bookshop the weekend of September 29th!
Stay tuned for details of our Grand Opening festivities—we can't wait to share our dreamy space with you all!
Whether you’re local to Middleburg, Virginia or joining us from afar, we’d love your support as we bring this charming, welcoming, and beautiful community hub to life—for many years to come.
Here are three ways you can help:
1.) Become a Friend of Middleburg Books
Because it takes a village to support a bookshop, we invite you to become a Friend of Middleburg Books—a group dedicated to to supporting a thriving bookshop in Middleburg, bringing the magic of literature to life, and furthering a culture of of community amongst the charming streets of our little town.
Membership includes:
Our email newsletter with the latest releases and bookshop events
$20 off with every $200 you spend in the shop
10% off event and workshop tickets
10% off our range of book subscriptions
For more information, please visit the website here.
2.) Instead of Buying Books on Amazon.com
Buy them on Bookshop.org.
Of course we’d prefer you come in and books in person once we open, but if you find yourself tempted to order your latest literary adventure in the middle of the night, order from our Bookshop.org shop.
If you’re not familiar with Bookshop.org they’ve been described as the Rebel Alliance to Amazon’s empire.
Their mission is simple: To help local, independent bookstores thrive in the age of e-commerce.
Certified as a B Corp, Bookshop.org puts this mission and the public good above financial interests, giving over 80% of their profit margin to independent bookstores.
We have curated lists of our favorite fiction and nonfiction, lots of our favorite children's books and much more.
3.) Purchase Your Audiobooks via Libro.fm
Instead of Audible.
I’ll be honest, I just switched over to Libro.fm myself.
As a person who hasn’t had much time to sit still lately, (who knew there were roughly two million details involved in opening a bookshop?!) audio books are my portal to reading.
Once again, to combat Amazon’s evil empire, Libro.fm is the audiobook rebel alliance. And who doesn’t love a Jedi? They are an employee-owned Social Purpose Corporation that shares profits from your audiobook purchases with Middleburg Books, giving you the power to keep money within our local economy.
Libro.fm has a catalog of over 400,000 audiobooks—and more than 99% of all The New York Times bestsellers.
Your support means so much to us.
We can’t wait to see you—either in the shop or on our Instagram page!
Which, speaking of—be sure to follow us right here. We're having so much fun sharing the behind the scenes adventures (and occasional misadventures) of bringing our amazing little bookshop to life
Thank you so much, and we’ll see you soon,
Xo, Mary Beth and Christina
