Arkansas's Nightbird Books Closing

Nightbird Books, Fayetteville, Ark., which opened in 2006, is closing on February 29, the store announced on Facebook. On its last day, 1-4 p.m., Nightbird will host "a chance for a final goodbye to our customers and former booksellers."

Founder and owner Lisa Sharp said, in part, "I've loved every minute of owning a bookstore in this community and I hope we have contributed something to you as well... Again, thank you for all the support, kindness, and love over the last 14 years. It has been much appreciated."

KNWA noted that the store had to move in 2014 within its building to "a smaller area tucked behind the clothing store" that had opened in the bookstore's original space.

Fayetteville is home to the University of Arkansas.
