Black Oak Books, once providing the perfect location for post-Cheeseboard-meal book shopping, is officially moving out
. It seems times are tough, and the store is packing up and looking for greener pastures … or cheaper retail space, as it were.
The new location doesn’t appear to have been officially confirmed, although there has been talk of a move to the intersection of Dwight & San Pablo Avenues. We can only hope that this move will go well and the store will reopen in its full labyrinthine glory at its new location.
However, we can’t help noticing certain similarities between this move and the throes of closing-reopening agony Cody’s Books went through last year before finally succumbing to its wounds. Not that the trend is altogether surprising—given that the current economic downturn seems to be compounding the bookstore-annihilating forces already wielded by Amazon.com.
