A SF institution that deserves NIT to be sacrificed

A very short-sighted decision based on a immediate bottom line, just as General Motors, or Walmart would do.

I love this bookstore/cafe! It’s one of the few remaining charming stop offs like what used to characterize San Francisco!

Save the Friends of the Public Library Readers' Bookstore!! This is exactly the kind of place that gives San Francisco its heart - a sweet, enriching place in a beautiful location that isn't glamorous but is a gathering place for the city's readers. Please keep it alive in this cultural center of the city.

I spent a wonderful afternoon browsing in this bookstore, found some real treasures. I hope to be able to go back next time I am in SF

As a former librarian, please save this most valuable cultural resource for those who cherish books, knowledge, art and the spirit of community in our lives.

It will be tragic if SF loses our most beautiful spot to read & browse, + to recycle books & music, while supporting our beloved library system.

Yikes! I think my donation went to ipetitions instead of the bookstore. Beware!

This is a community bookstore in the truest sense. It keeps books in circulation and out of landfill, it supports the Public Library, it sells books to those of us on tight budgets. Please keep it open!

can't understand rationale for closing it is a beloved service and is self supporting - closing it ostensibly 'to cut costs' is unconscionable
