CANCELED: David Riemer

press release: By now we're sure you are exhausted and a bit frightened by the talk and threat of the coronavirus affecting you and your community. Nevertheless, so many of you have asked about the health of our bookstore, that we thought we'd give you a quick update on what we're doing on this end and what we can do to ensure you'll get your books when you need them. 

As of today (Thursday, March 12), we are planning to stay open during our normal hours. If that changes, you'll be the first to know. Unfortunately, due to social distancing suggestions, we are cancelling all of our March events and will work with the authors to reschedule. Please check our website or our social media for updates. You're also welcome to call: 608-283-9332.

There are a number of procedural things we're doing in the store to mitigate the chance of anyone leaving the virus behind... 

• We frequently use Clorox wipes to clean door handles, countertops, and the credit card machine
• We have hand sanitizer at the front desk. Feel free to use it when you arrive and before you leave
• We have eliminated the need for you to sign credit card slips (no pens to handle)
• We'll be the one to hit the magic green button that lets the credit card machine know it's time to insert, swipe, or waive your card to process the charge (we are recommending using Apple Pay or Google Pay which allows you to simply wave your card over the machine - you won't have to touch anything)
• Cash is fine, but don't be surprised to see us wipe our hands with sanitizer after handling the cash...
• For the foreseeable future, our restroom will not be open to the public
• Our staff are using hand sanitizer and washing their hands frequently 
• Meeting your friends or family at the store? Try an elbow bump instead of a hand shake or a hug

Putting Government In Its Place: The Case for a New Deal 3.0 explains the major gaps, flaws, and mistakes of the New Deal settlement. Equally important, the book spells out, in outline and detail, the fundamental and sweeping changes needed to revive the New Deal. The proposed New Deal 3.0 would guarantee far greater economic security for all Americans, make our market economy dramatically more productive, and enlarge the nation’s wealth. The result: America’s next birth of freedom.
