#BoxedOut Grabs Headlines Nationwide and Across the Globe

As the #BoxedOut campaign continues, media outlets across the nation — and the world — are speaking with independent booksellers and spreading the message about shopping local.

Here’s how some booksellers have shared the story with their local news:

• Café Con Libros in Brooklyn, New York: Time Out New York
• Village Books in Bellingham, Washington: King5 TV
• Anderson’s Bookshops in Downers Grove, Illinois: WGN Radio 720
