Congratulations to Content Bookstore, Northfield, Minn., which is celebrating its 10th anniversary tomorrow, Saturday, November 16, with coffee and donuts, prize drawings throughout the day, and a fundraising drive for books for Operation Joy, its annual collaboration with the local Community Action Center, to help families in need get great gifts for their kids for the holidays.

In addition, the store wants to hear from customers about their favorite books and memories of Content over the years. Content is encouraging customers to "stop in and snap a photo with your favorite book at our photo booth and add it to our collection of Northfield's favorite reads, or leave us a love note on our vintage typewriter."
Incidentally, owner Jessica Peterson White traveled this week to Washington, D.C., as a member of Main Street Alliance to represent bookstores and other small businesses at an event on fair competition and anti-trust action with Senators Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Chris Murphy, as well as some House members. The event was organized by Fight Corporate Monopolies and the American Economic Liberty Project.
