Congratulations to Anne Holman, who has become a full partner in the King's English Bookshop, Salt Lake City, after acquiring stock in the shop from former partner Barbara Hoagland. She has worked at the store for 15 years, first as bookseller, then as events coordinator, and, for the past eight years, as store manager.

The King's English said about Holman: "Putting the partnership on paper is really only a formality; over those years she's taken enthusiastic ownership of every role she's played at TKE. She's demonstrated her competence in all aspects of this crazy, complex business of bookselling and has been Betsy Burton's de facto partner in decision-making, both the tough and the creative ones, bringing her vast knowledge of bookselling and publishing (not to mention her outsized sense of humor) to bear on not only our store but our regional booksellers association, Mountains and Plains Independent Booksellers Association. Anne's just been elected president of this group; her investment in TKE and in the business of books is extraordinary."
